Britain records sunniest spring in over a century
The UK had its sunniest spring since records began, the Met Office said after weeks of above-average temperatures and dry weather in the country known for its rainy days. With 630 hours of sunshine between March 1 and May 27, 2025 was the sunniest spring since 1910, the Met office said. It beat the previous record set in 2020 by four hours — with four days of the season still remaining. "It has indeed been an extremely sunny and dry spring for the majority," said Met Office scientist Emily Carlisle. "But with a few days left of the season and more unsettled weather this week, it's too early to say what will happen with other records." Other statistics, including for rainfall, are due to be published next week. It has been a spring of records, as Britain logged its hottest ever May Day with temperatures soaring to 29.3 degrees Celsius (84.7 degrees Fahrenheit), after recording its sunniest ever April. England also saw its driest start to spring in 69 years according to the government's environment agency, raising fears of drought and stunted crops among farmers. Earlier this month, the Environment Agency called a meeting of its national drought group after it said levels in reservoirs were "exceptionally low." Seven out of the 10 sunniest springs on record in the UK took place after 2000, according to the Met Office. However in the spring of 2024, the country saw just 377 hours of sunshine, making it one of the dreariest on record. Scientists warn that extreme and fluctuating weather events are becoming increasingly common as planet-heating fossil fuel emissions keep rising. Agence France-Presse

UAE weather tomorrow: Fair to partly cloudy day; humidity by night
The weather on Friday, May 30, is expected to be fair to partly cloudy at times, according to a forecast by the National Centre of Meteorology. Conditions are likely to get humid by night and Saturday morning over some coastal areas. In a recent Khaleej Times report, a senior meteorologist confirmed that temperatures will begin to dip by four to five degrees in the coming days, offering a welcome break from the severe heatwave that has gripped the country. Light to moderate southeasterly becoming northwesterly winds are expected to blow, freshening at times causing blowing dust during daytime, with a speed of 10-25 km/hr, reaching 40 km/hr. The sea will be slight to moderate, becoming rough gradually by Saturday morning westward in the Arabian Gulf and slight in Oman Sea. Temperatures are expected to drop to a low of 23°C in parts of Abu Dhabi and reach a high of 47°C in other areas of the Capital.

UAE Weather to Cool Down This Week After Hitting Near 50°C
After back-to-back days of intense heat, the UAE is finally expecting some relief. Weather officials say temperatures will start to go down from Monday, especially in coastal areas. Cooler air and light winds bring relief The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said the weather on Monday will be generally fair, with some patches of clouds. Temperatures are expected to drop gradually over the coming days, thanks to light to moderate southwesterly to northwesterly winds moving across the country. However, these winds might stir up some dust during the day. From almost 50°C to cooler mountain temps On Sunday, the hottest recorded temperature was 49.8°C in Mezaira, Al Dhafra, while the lowest was 22.5°C in Barakah 2, also in the Al Dhafra region. Meanwhile, temperatures in Jebel Jais in Ras Al Khaimah could go as low as 25°C, offering a much cooler option for those looking to escape the heat. However, Abu Dhabi will remain hot, with highs still expected to hit 48°C in some areas. The drop may not be drastic for everyone, but for residents who've endured days near the 50°C mark, it's a step in the right direction.
