UAE weather to be partly cloudy and humid on Sunday, predicts NCM
The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has predicted Sunday's weather to be clear to partly cloudy, with humid conditions overnight and on early Monday in some coastal areas.
Northwesterly to southwesterly, light to moderate winds will blow, occasionally active and stirring daytime dust, with speeds ranging between 10-20 km/h, amounting to 35 km/h and the sea will be slight to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and Sea of Oman due to a surface low-pressure system from the east, a high-pressure system from the west, and a weak upper-air low-pressure system.
The highest temperatures will be 33°C-45°C while the lowest will be 23°C-33°C, the NCM stated.
Monday's weather will be clear to partly cloudy and winds will be southwesterly to northwesterly, light to moderate, occasionally dusty with speeds ranging between 10-20 km/h, amounting to 30 km/h and the sea will be light to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and Sea of Oman, the NCM stated.
Tuesday's weather will be clear to partly cloudy and winds will be southwesterly to northwesterly, light to moderate, occasionally dusty with speeds ranging between 10-25 km/h, amounting to 40 km/h and the sea will be moderate to rough in the Arabian Gulf, light to moderate in the Sea of Oman, according to the NCM. Wednesday's weather will be clear to partly cloudy and humid overnight with possible light fog in coastal and inland areas. Winds will be southwesterly to northwesterly, light to moderate, occasionally dusty with speeds ranging between 10-25 km/h, amounting to 40 km/h and the sea will be rough to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and light to moderate in the Sea of Oman, the NCM stated.
The (NCM) announced that summer officially began on Saturday, June 21, with the UAE expected to experience the influence of the Indian seasonal low-pressure system, which plays a significant role in raising temperatures, with maximums reaching up to 50°C in some areas, particularly in the southwestern and western regions. It also brings humid and hot air masses from the southeast and east.
Historical data shows that the highest temperature ever recorded in the UAE was 51.8°C in Mezairaa on July 30, 2017.
The NCM predicts that during most summer days, northwesterly winds will prevail in the afternoon and evening, leading to increased humidity and higher water vapor levels in the air. This may cause fog or light fog to form in limited areas during the night and at early morning hours, though it will dissipate quickly as temperatures rise with sunlight.
The NCM said that the average number of days with fog or light fog during summer is expected to be 8 days.

UAE weather tomorrow: Summer to begin; fair to partly cloudy skies
The UAE will experience generally fair to partly cloudy skies on Saturday, June 21, marking the official start of summer 2025, according to the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM). On June 21, the summer solstice takes place in the UAE, according to the Dubai Astronomy Group (DAG). A summer solstice is "the moment when the sun reaches its highest and northernmost point in the sky", said Khadijah Al Hariri, Operations Manager at DAG. Humidity is expected to rise by night and into Sunday morning, increasing the likelihood of fog or mist forming over some coastal and inland areas. Temperatures are forecast to reach a high of 40°C and a low of 29°C in Abu Dhabi, 39°C and 31°C in Dubai, and 45°C and 33°C in Al Ain. Light to moderate winds, shifting from southwesterly to northwesterly, will blow at speeds ranging between 10 and 20 km/h, occasionally reaching up to 30 km/h. Sea conditions will be slight to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and slight in the Oman Sea. The summer solstice is set to start at 06.42 UAE time and will last for three months until the autumnal equinox around September 23. During this period, UAE residents are urged to take serious precautions to prioritise their health and safety.
