There may be fog on Saturday and Sunday mornings and hazy, cloudy conditions are forecast to persist until Monday.

Sunny weather will continue throughout the course of the weekend in Dubai, with temperatures reaching as high as 42°C on Sunday.

In Ras Al Khaimah, the temperatures will reach 43°C with a real feel of 47°C, AccuWeather estimated.
