UAE Weather Alert: Fog and Humidity on the Rise

The UAE weather department has issued a fresh alert for rising humidity and fog. Coastal areas are expected to be most affected. Residents are advised to stay cautious, especially in the early mornings.

Morning Fog Causes Low Visibility

The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) warned of thick morning fog. This could reduce visibility on roads, making driving dangerous. The fog usually forms before sunrise and clears by mid-morning. Drivers should avoid speeding and use fog lights when needed.

Humidity Levels Expected to Rise

Humidity is rising across the UAE. Coastal and internal areas are seeing higher moisture levels in the air. This is common in late May as summer approaches. High humidity makes the air feel hotter than it actually is. People may feel sticky and tired easily.

Which Areas Are Affected?

The fog alert mostly covers coastal cities like Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah. These cities are likely to see early morning fog. Inland areas may also experience hazy skies. The weather may stay dry, but the humidity will make it feel uncomfortable.

What Should You Do?

Stay indoors during peak fog hours if possible. If you must drive, slow down and keep a safe distance. Use headlights but avoid high beams in foggy conditions. Keep your windows closed to avoid humidity indoors. Make sure air conditioning works properly, especially in cars and offices.

More UAE Weather Changes Ahead

The NCM said that the UAE weather may continue to shift over the next few days. While no heavy rain is expected, the combination of heat and humidity can be draining. People should drink more water and wear light clothing. Avoid outdoor work during midday hours.

Stay Updated with Official Alerts

Residents are urged to follow weather updates from the NCM. Do not rely on social media rumors. Official updates are the most reliable and up to date. You can also use weather apps for real-time alerts.

Final Advice

In short, the UAE weather is getting hotter and more humid. Morning fog adds more risk for road users. Take safety steps, stay cool, and check daily weather reports to plan your day wisely.
