The United Arab Emirates witnessed a significant shift in weather conditions this Tuesday as rainfall persisted across various parts of the country. According to the latest reports monitored by Business Promotion24, the intensity of the downpour ranged from light and moderate to heavy, affecting residents and commuters in several Emirates.
Widespread Rain and Hail Across the Emirates
Major areas including Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, Sharjah, Ajman, and Dubai experienced varying levels of precipitation. However, the weather took a dramatic turn in specific northern and eastern regions. Large hailstones were observed on several key routes, including Kadra Road and Sheikh Khalifa Road heading toward Fujairah. Similarly, the Kadra-Asfani Road saw heavy rainfall accompanied by hail, leading to significant water accumulation in certain areas.
The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) confirmed that heavy rainfall and hail were particularly concentrated in locations such as Al Siji, Kadra, Asfani, and Shawka. Other areas like Al Musaili, Marbad, Souq Al Juma, and Fali also faced heavy downpours. Meanwhile, more moderate conditions were reported in Al Ruwaidha, Masafi, and Daftah, with light rain touching Al Madam, Masfout, and Hatta.
Record Rainfall and Official NCM Data
According to data released by the NCM at 4:28 PM on Tuesday, Shawka in Ras Al Khaimah recorded the day’s highest rainfall at 4.4 mm. At Business Promotion24, we emphasize the importance of staying updated with official meteorological data during such volatile weather shifts to ensure road safety and effective planning.
Four-Day Weather Forecast: What to Expect
Looking ahead, the National Centre of Meteorology predicts a transition toward fair to partly cloudy weather for the next four days. However, the potential for rain is not entirely gone. There is a likelihood of convective clouds developing in the eastern and western regions during the afternoon hours, which may bring isolated showers.
- Humidity and Fog: Nighttime and early morning hours are expected to be increasingly humid, especially in coastal and interior areas. This could lead to the formation of fog or mist, reducing visibility for early morning commuters.
- Wind Conditions: Winds are forecast to remain southeasterly to northeasterly. While average speeds will range between 10 and 25 km/h, they could surge to 40 km/h during cloud activity, potentially stirring up dust and sand.
- Sea Conditions: For those planning maritime activities, the NCM expects sea conditions to remain slight in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
