LATEST: UAE Central Bank asks lenders to defer loans to help flood-hit residents
More rain is forecast for parts of the UAE this week, the National Centre of Meteorology has said.
Light to moderate rain is expected to fall in some areas on Monday, April 22, with a chance of more showers the following day, according to the latest NCM forecasts.
News of more rain comes as much of the country recovers from the storms that caused chaos last week.
The good news is this week's rainfall is not expected to be anything close to that.
Monday's weather is forecast to be fair to partly cloudy in general, with the probability of light to moderate rain at times, accompanied by an increase in temperatures.
The NCM predicts there will be a chance of rainfall on Tuesday, with a fall in temperatures over some coastal areas.
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are also expected to have a chance of light rainfall, according to the NCM.
However, it looks unlikely much of the rain will fall on Dubai, according to weather forecast app Windy.
It expects temperatures for the week in Dubai to peak on Monday and Tuesday at 33°C, before dropping for the rest of the week, with a forecast of 30°C on Thursday and Friday.
Not much rain is expected in Abu Dhabi, where temperatures are set to peak at 33°C on Monday before dropping for the rest of the week.
Three ways to limit your social media use
Clinical psychologist, Dr Saliha Afridi at The Lighthouse Arabia suggests three easy things you can do every day to cut back on the time you spend online.
1. Put the social media app in a folder on the second or third screen of your phone so it has to remain a conscious decision to open, rather than something your fingers gravitate towards without consideration.
2. Schedule a time to use social media instead of consistently throughout the day. I recommend setting aside certain times of the day or week when you upload pictures or share information.
3. Take a mental snapshot rather than a photo on your phone. Instead of sharing it with your social world, try to absorb the moment, connect with your feeling, experience the moment with all five of your senses. You will have a memory of that moment more vividly and for far longer than if you take a picture of it.
