UAE weather: Rain, strong winds and dust expected as temperatures soar to 49°C

## Weather Conditions

The UAE is bracing for a mix of rain, strong winds, and dust as temperatures are expected to soar to 49°C in some inland areas. The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has forecasted these conditions for Wednesday, with the weather being fair to partly cloudy.

## Rain and Wind Forecast

Convective clouds are likely to form over eastern and southern regions during the afternoon, potentially bringing rainfall. Winds will vary from light to moderate but may intensify around clouds, causing dust and sand to reduce visibility. Inland wind speeds could reach up to 55 km/h, while coastal areas might experience winds up to 45 km/h.

## Temperature and Humidity

Temperatures are predicted to range from 45°C to 49°C inland, 39°C to 45°C along coastal areas, and 33°C to 38°C in mountainous regions. Humidity is expected to rise overnight and into Thursday morning, particularly in some western coastal areas, with a possibility of mist formation.

## Outlook for the Coming Days

The unsettled weather pattern is anticipated to persist, with chances of rain-producing clouds over eastern and southern areas on Thursday. Further rainfall is possible from Friday through Sunday in various parts of the country.
