UAE Weather Update: Temperatures Soar to 41°C with Fair to Partly Cloudy Skies

Advertisement

The UAE continues to experience intense summer heat, with the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) reporting fair to partly cloudy skies across the country. Daily highs are expected to reach 41°C in Abu Dhabi, while Dubai will see temperatures climbing to 40°C.

Early this morning, the coolest reading was recorded in Raknah, Al Ain, at 23.2°C at 5:00 a.m. Local residents are advised to take necessary precautions against the heat, as high humidity levels of around 70% make it feel even warmer.

Winds across the UAE will remain light to moderate, with occasional gusts reaching up to 35 km/h. While these breezes offer slight relief, the heat index will still feel significantly higher than actual temperatures.

For maritime enthusiasts, conditions remain relatively calm. Both the Arabian Gulf and the Oman Sea are expected to have gentle waves, providing a safer and more enjoyable experience for boaters looking to escape the heat.

Authorities continue to stress the importance of staying hydrated, limiting outdoor exposure during peak hours, and following heat safety guidelines to avoid heat-related illnesses.
