UAE weather: Mainly sunny with intermittent cloud


  • English
  • Arabic

Temperatures will remain steady on Sunday, with most of the coastal cities seeing similar highs.

A hazy morning will give way to sunshine, causing temperatures that  could reach 41°C in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and 42°C in the interior.

There will be a brief relief from the heat by light to moderate south-easterly to north-westerly winds over coastal and internal areas.

Low pressure over eastern and northern areas will result in clouds, interrupting an otherwise fair day. The interior and mountainous areas should see a clear day.

The Arabian Gulf and Oman Sea will remain relatively calm throughout the day.

Key findings of Jenkins report
  • Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
  • Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
  • Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
  • Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."
