The UAE's National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has forecast a chance of rainfall across parts of the country over four consecutive days, from October 11 to October 14. According to the forecast, October 11 will bring convective cloud formation over the UAE's eastern and southern regions, with a chance of light rain. Winds that day could reach up to 30 kmph, and overnight humidity may lead to patches of mist and fog in some areas.
On October 12, convective clouds are expected to build during the afternoon over the country's internal regions, with winds potentially reaching 45 kmph — strong enough to raise blowing dust in exposed areas. Humidity is likely to return overnight. October 13 should be largely fair to partly cloudy, though forecasters say there remains a chance of rain towards the eastern and western parts of the country, with winds shifting from southeasterly to northeasterly. By October 14, convective clouds are forecast to reform with another chance of rain, alongside winds of up to 40 kmph that could stir up dust, even as overall conditions stay fair to partly cloudy.
The NCM has urged residents to drive carefully during this period, particularly overnight and in early morning hours when humidity and fog risk is highest. Fluctuating wind speeds in the UAE's interior could also temporarily reduce visibility on the roads.
The four-day outlook matters for residents and visitors alike, since sudden shifts in weather can affect daily routines, road traffic and even short domestic flights. Local authorities typically issue updated advisories through official channels as conditions develop over the coming days.
