UAE weather: Fog covers parts of UAE on Sunday morning

Authorities advised commuters to drive cautiously, take precautions and follow traffic regulations as fog developed over many areas resulting in low visibility on the roads on Sunday morning.

Many parts of Dubai and Abu Dhabi were covered in fog early on Sunday, the National Centre of Meteorology said.

Dubai Police urged the public to be careful as some areas in the city experienced low visibility.

Fog cover affected main roads such as Emirates Road, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Street, and Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Street before Al Maktoum Airport heading towards Abu Dhabi, as well as Sheikh Zayed Road before Jebel Ali Port heading towards Abu Dhabi, Al Yalayis Street and Expo Street.

Abu Dhabi Police reduced speeds to 80 kilometres per hour on several roads including Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Road, Maktoum Bin Rashid Road, and Abu Dhabi - Al Ain road.

Temperatures hovered around 27°C in Dubai, 28°C in Abu Dhabi and 23°C in Sharjah.

Weather conditions are expected to be fair in general and partly cloudy at times in the UAE on Sunday, the NCM said.

The humidity of the night will last into Sunday morning when there will be a chance of fog over some coastal and internal areas, especially to the west.

Temperatures in Abu Dhabi and Dubai will reach the high thirties with humidity between 75 and 80 per cent.

Light to moderate winds will sporadically freshen causing dust to swirl.

Conditions will be slight in the Arabian Gulf and in Oman Sea.

10 tips for entry-level job seekers
  • Have an up-to-date, professional LinkedIn profile. If you don’t have a LinkedIn account, set one up today. Avoid poor-quality profile pictures with distracting backgrounds. Include a professional summary and begin to grow your network.
  • Keep track of the job trends in your sector through the news. Apply for job alerts at your dream organisations and the types of jobs you want – LinkedIn uses AI to share similar relevant jobs based on your selections.
  • Double check that you’ve highlighted relevant skills on your resume and LinkedIn profile.
  • For most entry-level jobs, your resume will first be filtered by an applicant tracking system for keywords. Look closely at the description of the job you are applying for and mirror the language as much as possible (while being honest and accurate about your skills and experience).
  • Keep your CV professional and in a simple format – make sure you tailor your cover letter and application to the company and role.
  • Go online and look for details on job specifications for your target position. Make a list of skills required and set yourself some learning goals to tick off all the necessary skills one by one.
  • Don’t be afraid to reach outside your immediate friends and family to other acquaintances and let them know you are looking for new opportunities.
  • Make sure you’ve set your LinkedIn profile to signal that you are “open to opportunities”. Also be sure to use LinkedIn to search for people who are still actively hiring by searching for those that have the headline “I’m hiring” or “We’re hiring” in their profile.
  • Prepare for online interviews using mock interview tools. Even before landing interviews, it can be useful to start practising.
  • Be professional and patient. Always be professional with whoever you are interacting with throughout your search process, this will be remembered. You need to be patient, dedicated and not give up on your search. Candidates need to make sure they are following up appropriately for roles they have applied.
