UAE weather: Cool week ahead as winds bring more dust storms

It will be dry across the UAE for the start of the working week

Fresh winds reaching 45 kilometres an hour at times will continue to keep temperatures low for much of the nation on Sunday and bring the risk of more blowing dust.

The cloudy, hazy conditions of recent days will remain in place for the start of the week.

Although it will be dry, temperatures in the day will struggle to climb above 21°C for Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Sea conditions will remain rough in the Arabian Gulf and Oman Sea, with waves reaching heights of 5-7 feet on the shore due to the strong northwesterly winds.

Inland, blowing dust will continue to be a problem in exposed areas, reducing visibility and creating difficult breathing conditions for anyone working outside for prolonged periods.

A similar weather pattern is forecast for Monday and into Tuesday, as temperatures remain in the low 20s for many, although it will be dry and fair with sunny spells across the UAE.
