Heavy showers and hailstorms hit parts of Dubai, including Al Alisaili–Margham and Ghshabah, while light rain was reported in Al Ain, marking the onset of a weather shift forecasted for the weekend. The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has issued alerts for continued unstable weather, urging residents to stay cautious, especially motorists navigating slippery roads and reduced visibility.
As convective clouds form over inland and mountainous regions on Sunday, the NCM indicated that further rain and dusty conditions are anticipated. Temperature fluctuations and strong winds accompanying the rain may worsen visibility across open areas, particularly in the Western and Eastern regions.
Authorities have advised people to avoid valleys and waterlogged areas, monitor weather updates regularly, and follow safety guidelines issued by local police and emergency services.
