emirates7 - Today's weather in the UAE remains dominated by extreme heat and elevated humidity, continuing a pattern observed over recent days. The National Center of Meteorology (NCM) has issued a fresh advisory, alerting the public to prepare for yet another sweltering day, with temperatures forecasted to range between 45°C and 49°C in various regions.

Overall, conditions are expected to be mostly fair, occasionally turning partly cloudy. Some convective clouds may develop in eastern areas by the afternoon. Although a slight, gradual dip in temperatures may occur during the day, the atmosphere will remain intensely hot.

Expected temperature ranges across regions:

Coastal areas and islands: 40°C to 45°C
Interior regions: 45°C to 49°C
Mountain areas: 35°C to 40°C

These weather patterns are being driven by a combination of surface low pressure extending from the east and strong high-pressure systems from the west, along with an upper-air ridge.

Humidity is expected to increase significantly by tonight and into Thursday morning, raising the likelihood of fog or mist in some northern regions. Light to moderate winds are forecasted, with occasional strengthening that could stir up dust and sand, especially in western parts of the country.

Sea conditions:

The Arabian Gulf may range from moderate to rough in the western areas.
The Oman Sea is expected to remain calm.

Authorities advise residents to stay well-hydrated and avoid outdoor activities during peak heat hours for safety.
