Temperatures will begin to dip by four to five degrees in the coming days, a senior meteorologist had said. The scorching conditions were caused by an internal low-pressure system from the south of the UAE, pushing hot desert air across the region. Last weekend saw temperatures soar to a staggering 51.6°C in Sweihan, Al Ain, marking the hottest May day ever recorded in the country since 2003. The previous record stood at 50.2°C in Al Shawamekh, Abu Dhabi, experienced in 2009.

Air-conditioning fault leaves passengers stuck on plane in Dubai's 47°C heat
Passengers on a British Airways flight from Dubai felt the heat when an air-conditioning fault grounded the plane on a day of record high temperatures. Travellers were subjected to sweltering conditions on board the Boeing 787 plane while it remained at Dubai International Airport for about two hours due to a power failure that prevented cabin airflow and cooling systems from operating. The aircraft was diverted to a cargo area of the airport while repairs were carried out, British newspaper The Independent reported. The flight left Dubai for London after the malfunction was fixed. 'We thank our customers for their patience while we resolved a technical issue with the aircraft,' said a British Airways spokesperson in a statement shared to media. 'Our crew provided water to customers on board and worked hard to ensure our customers remained as comfortable as possible whilst we resolved the issue.' The incident took place on Saturday, when temperatures in Dubai soared to 47°C and exceeded 50°C in other parts of the Emirates. The mercury rose to 51.6°C in the Sweihan area close to Al Ain, a record for the month of May in the UAE. The previous record high of 50.4°C, also in Abu Dhabi emirate, was set the previous day.
