Dust, Clouds, and Fog Expected: UAE Weather Update, July 24, 2025
A surface low-pressure system from the East, along with a weak upper air low-pressure extension, is influencing today's weather across the UAE. Expect fair to partly cloudy skies, with some convective cloud formations likely in the eastern regions, which may bring rainfall. Expect Fog and Mist Overnight Humidity levels will rise tonight and into Friday morning, increasing the probability of fog or mist, especially in coastal and inland areas. Visibility may be reduced during early hours, so motorists should remain cautious. Temperatures Remain Scorching Humidity levels vary from 65% to 90% across the country, adding to the heat discomfort. Winds and Sea Conditions Winds will be light to moderate, occasionally freshening to 35 km/h, coming from southeasterly to northwesterly directions. Blowing dust may affect visibility during the day. The sea remains slight in both the Arabian Gulf and Oman Sea, making it generally safe for marine activities.

The region's searing summer heat reminds us of changing climate realities
July temperatures in most of the Middle East are challenging every year, especially for people whose jobs require them to spend long periods outdoors during the day. But however used to the trials of summer the region's inhabitants may be, extreme weather is becoming more common. This is a new climate reality that countries and governments can no longer ignore. Other regions, like Southern Europe, are even less equipped to deal with record high summers, with temperatures in some Spanish and Portuguese cities exceeding 46 degrees Celsius this month. As UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has pointed out last year, when he called for an urgent international effort to address extreme heat, around 2.4 billion people around the world are at high risk from this issue. Governments need to continuously adjust to these realities. UAE authorities have had protocols in place for more than 20 years that mandate rest for workers – especially construction workers, delivery drivers, outdoor security personnel, among others – during the hottest parts of the day in the warmest months. This is intended to reduce their exposure to heat and any associated risk of fatigue and heat-related health issues. Other measures are in place across the country, such as Dubai and Ajman restricting working hours for government employees through the summer. Sensible and humane policies rightfully inform the labour laws of the country and also the standards companies set for themselves. The issue of responding to heat stress and climate-related challenges, though, is much larger than what can be tackled in labour law and HR offices. The challenges of tackling climate change vary from country to country, even as the overarching issue of addressing rising temperatures is common across the planet. Around 2.4 billion people around the world are at high risk from this issue Wildfires in coastal Syria this month raged on for more than a week. In Iraq, 46 million people are facing water crises after inadequate rains disrupted agricultural planning in the country that the UN has said is one of the five most vulnerable to certain effects of climate change. In Iran, a public holiday was announced as temperatures touched 50°C and residents were asked to limit their water usage. Rainfall in the Middle East and North Africa has been the lowest in five years. All of this points to a worrying future if strong measures are not taken urgently, and the Middle East is particularly vulnerable. A situation that is, however, increasingly precarious for much of the world requires foresight, planning, innovation and a sharing of expertise so that countries can work together to adapt to the challenges posed by a warming planet. In addition to federal plans already in place to tackle climate change and in recognition of the necessity of bracing for this uncertain climate future, Abu Dhabi launched a climate action plan yesterday for the next 25 years to bolster vulnerable environmental systems of groundwater, soil and biodiversity. Dr Shaikha Salem Al Dhaheri, secretary general of the Environment Agency Abu Dhabi called it "a science-backed, action-oriented road map'.

UAE weather tomorrow: Rainfall likely in some areas; conditions to get humid by night
Following a period of unstable summer weather in recent days, residents can expect rainfall in some parts of the country on Thursday, July 24, according to the forecast by the met department. The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said in its bulletin that the weather will be fair to partly cloudy, with a probability of some convective cloud formation eastward, which may be associated with rainfall. Conditions are likely to get humid by night and Friday morning over some coastal and internal areas, with a probability mist formation westward. There will be light to moderate southwesterly to northwesterly winds, freshening at times during daytime, causing blowing dust, with a speed of 10kmph and 25kmph, reaching 40kmph. The sea conditions will be slight in the Arabian Gulf and in the Oman Sea. Temperatures are expected to reach 48°C in Sweihan. Temperatures in Abu Dhabi will witness a high of 43°C and a low of 31°C, while Dubai will see a high of 42°C and a low of 32°C. Sharjah will witness a high of 42°C and a low of 33°C. On July 23, a meteorologist with NCM said that the UAE is expected to experience a drop in temperatures over the next few days, with a decrease of four to five degrees before rising again. According to the veteran meteorologist, the recent weather activity is linked to a combination of atmospheric systems, including a low-pressure system moving in from the East, moisture-laden air from the Arabian Sea, and the northward shift of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).
