More rain has been forecast in the UAE by the National Centre of Meteorology, although it is unlikely to affect Abu Dhabi or Dubai.
Stormy conditions on Thursday sparked weather warnings leading to remote working across the country and flight disruption at Dubai International and Zayed International Airport.
And more rain could be on the way, according to the NCM’s five-day forecast.
People in southern areas could see rainfall on Saturday, the NCM said, while there is a stronger chance of showers on Sunday with cloudier conditions, particularly in southern and eastern areas.
This could be followed by more rain on Monday in the south and west, while Tuesday could feature wet weather in southern areas, the forecast said.
If rain does come, it looks likely to be light as the Windy weather app shows little to no suggestion of heavy rainfall over the five-day period.
In comparison to previous forecasts, before the April 16 deluge or before Thursday’s heavy rainfall, it looks like any disruption will be minor.
