UAE weather tomorrow: Temperature to hit 50°C in some areas; chance of rains
In its forecast, the NCM stated there is a probability of some convective cloud formation eastward and southward, which may be associated with rainfall.
Weather conditions are expected to be fair to partly cloudy at times throughout the day. Light to moderate southeasterly to northeasterly winds are set to blow, freshening at times during daytime, causing blowing dust, with a speed of 10-25 km/hr, reaching 40 km/hr.
The sea will be slight in the Arabian Gulf and in the Oman Sea.
Temperatures are expected to drop to a low of 28°C in areas like Jabal Jais and reach a high of 50°C in Abu Dhabi's Mukhariz area located in Al Dhafra.

As UAE summer temperatures soar, why does it always rain in Al Ain?
The UAE is firmly in the grip of peak summer with scorching temperatures being recorded daily across the country. The highest temperature in the UAE on Monday was a sizzling 50°C in Owtaid in the Al Dhafra region of Abu Dhabi emirate, the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said. This year has also brought the hottest April and May on record. Climate change along with other factors such as El Nino ending have contributed, experts say. But rain over some parts of the country such as Al Ain on Monday, across the Northern Emirates at the weekend and in parts of Abu Dhabi and Dubai last week have brought some relief. The wet weather was in stark contrast to the rising temperatures across the country and come amid what has been the driest in recent years to date, with 38 per cent less rainfall than the historical average. Videos shared by the NCM and Storm Centre, a social media channel that tracks the UAE's weather, showed motorists navigating rain-lashed roads, downpours falling on the desert and leaden skies. So what explains the showers in the middle of the summer? Weather systems from the Arabian Sea The rains, particularly in the eastern parts of the UAE such as Al Ain, are caused by a low-pressure system from the south-east bringing moisture-laden air from the Arabian Sea, a meteorologist from the NCM told The National on Tuesday. He said these systems then meet the mountains on the UAE's east coast, the air rises, meets a relatively cooler layer above and this can then lead to the formation of convective clouds and potentially rain. 'Moisture from the Arabian Sea is coming to our area,' the NCM forecaster said. 'This air mass comes from the sea to the mountains. The mountains then block the air.' He added the heat over the country during the day also means air rises, creating an updraft, which further increases the chances of convective clouds and rain. 'All these [things] bring more rain, especially in Al Ain,' he said. Coastal areas of the UAE are also experiencing high humidity – up to 70 per cent in some coastal areas – because of this weather system. Climate records tumble Despite the rains, this year has seen climate records tumble in the UAE with April and May the hottest on record. It marked a change from April 2024 when torrential rains caused major floods across the UAE, but particularly in Dubai. Experts believe summers were getting warmer and starting earlier due to climate change, while other factors such as El Nino, a warming of the equatorial Pacific that stopped in 2024, as another reason for the hotter than normal 2025. Dr Diana Francis, an assistant professor and head of the Environmental and Geophysical Sciences (Engeos) lab at Khalifa University in Abu Dhabi, previously told The National that the El Nino factor means less rain for the Middle East and a lot of heat, because when it ends the way moisture is carried towards the Middle East weakens and high-pressure dominance increases. But many parts of the world have been baking in heat. Greece fought wildfires on Tuesday across the country amid a severe heatwave, but many were believed to be under control. Turkey has also been battling fires and recorded its highest temperature in history. A wildfire in Al Ain was extinguished on Monday, Abu Dhabi Police reported, but details of what caused the fire were not revealed. Other weather events such as dust storms have also been common. Major rains are also not uncommon at this time with floods sweeping through the country's east coast in 2022. The waters flooded roads, inundated homes and forced people to seek emergency accommodation. More rain for the UAE? The NCM, meanwhile, said rain could return by the weekend. In its five-day bulletin published on Tuesday, the NCM forecast a 'chance of some convective clouds formation eastward associated with rainfall' for Friday. It is a similar story for Saturday, with further chances for convective clouds and rain.

Heaviest rainfall in 27 years: How Fujairah battled floods on this day, 3 years ago
Today, three years ago, Fujairah saw unprecedented flooding as residents waded through thigh-deep waters after the emirate experienced the heaviest rainfall in 27 years. The leaders of the nation came together to battle the unforeseen circumstances, ordering the military to army to support rescue efforts. Around 900 people were rescued after flash floods hit the Northern Emirates, while over 3,897 individuals were placed in temporary shelters in Fujairah and Sharjah. Following two days of incessant rains, Fujairah's port station recorded 255.2mm of water, the highest in the UAE during July. While the second highest was recorded in Masafi which was 209.7mm and the third highest was noted in Fujairah Airport with 187.9mm of rain. It wreaked havoc on infrastructure, leaving residents stranded, as they headed to hotels — many of which had hiked their prices amid a rise in demand. In the days that followed, cars could be seen overturned after being swept away by the floods. In the video below, recovery companies can be seen attempting to clear vehicles that had been washed away. The UAE's Ministry of Interior had said that seven people of Asian descent were confirmed dead in the wake of the floods. In a statement, Brigadier General Dr Ali Salem Al Tunaiji, director-general of the Ministry of Interior Federal Central Operations, said, 'We regret to inform you that six people of Asian nationalities have been found dead due to the floods in the Emirates.' 'The Ministry of Interior offers its condolences to the families of the victims,' he added.
