Look: UAE sees first hail of summer as heavy rain hits parts of Al Ain
Brining much needed respite from the heat, UAE witnessed its first hail this summer on Saturday evening, alongwith moderate to heavy rainfall in parts of Al Ain. Heavy showers were witnessed in parts of Al Ain like Khatm Al Shakla and Malaqit, according to the UAE's National Center of Meteorology. Al Nabah, Um Gaffa and Al Dhahir recieved light rainfall on Saturday evening. The Storm Center shared visuals of hail from Al-Shakla canal in Al Ain city.

Why do we see hail in summer? According to meteorologists, hail during summer occurs when surface temperatures are warm, but the upper atmosphere is still cold enough to support ice. Hail can occur during summer due to strong updrafts in convective clouds. These strong updrafts, fueled by rising warm air, carry water droplets and ice particles high into the atmosphere, where they freeze and become hailstones. Relief from heat The rain and hail bring some respite from the high temperatures the coountry has been witnessing this summer. Last week, UAE recorded the highest temperature of the summer season so far. A temperature of 49.9°C was recorded in Mezaira (Al Dhafra region) on June 21. Average temperatures have remained over 45°C of late, with last month being the hottest May in over 20 years in the UAE with temperature hitting 51.6°C.
