UAE weather: Hot, dusty and unpleasant weekend ahead


  • English
  • Arabic

Summer has finally set in as a hot and humid weekend lies ahead for the UAE.

Residents should expect unpleasant conditions as dust and low visibility is likely to affect any outdoor plans.

Temperatures are expected to rise during the day, with relative humidity to hit 100 per cent during weekend nights.

Temperatures in Dubai and Abu Dhabi could drop to 28°C overnight, but are expected to reach highs of 42°C.

Those looking for respite at sea will likely be met with choppy waters as the coastguard considers issuing a stay on boats over the next few days.

Islamophobia definition

A widely accepted definition was made by the All Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims in 2019: “Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.” It further defines it as “inciting hatred or violence against Muslims”.
