Unstable summer weather conditions gripped parts of the country in recent days, with residents in Abu Dhabi and Dubai experiencing heavy dust storms, haze, sporadic rainfall, and a noticeable drop in temperatures.
Recently, moderate to heavy rainfall was reported in Dubai's Margham area, Abu Dhabi's Al Dhafrah region, and several parts of Al Ain, including Umm Ghaffa, Al Faqa, Um Al Zumoul, and Khatm Al Shiklah. Authorities issued orange and yellow alerts in select areas, cautioning residents about potential hazardous weather and urging vigilance during outdoor activities.
Experts say these patterns are expected to continue intermittently over the next few days — with a more active system forecast around July 25-26.
