UAE Weather Today: Heavy Rain and Temperatures Drop
The UAE weather today, November 12, is expected to remain unsettled, with heavy rain possible in some areas, strong winds and a further drop in temperatures.
The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has forecast partly cloudy to cloudy skies, with rain clouds bringing showers across scattered parts of the country.
According to the NCM forecast, rainfall could become heavy at times, particularly around eastern and inland areas. Parts of Fujairah and the northern regions may also experience unstable conditions.
Temperatures are expected to fall slightly further, bringing cooler weather across the Emirates. Maximum temperatures are forecast to reach around 30°C in Abu Dhabi, 31°C in Dubai and 32°C in Sharjah.
Winds will blow from the southwest to northwest, reaching speeds of 55km/h at times along coastal areas and islands. These winds could lift dust and sand, reducing visibility on roads.
Sea conditions are also expected to remain rough. The Arabian Gulf could become rough to very rough, while the Sea of Oman is forecast to experience moderate to rough conditions.
The unsettled weather follows rainfall reported in parts of Sharjah, Fujairah and Al Ain on Wednesday, November 11.
Authorities have advised residents to drive carefully during rainfall, reduce their speed and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. Motorists should also avoid flooded roads and stay away from valleys where water may collect.
Residents are encouraged to follow official NCM weather updates as conditions may vary across different parts of the UAE.
