As the weekend approaches, residents in the UAE can expect a fair to partly cloudy day, according to the latest forecast by the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM). While overall conditions are expected to be relatively pleasant, the NCM has issued a yellow alert due to the potential for fog and mist formation in some areas during the morning hours.
The regions most likely to experience foggy conditions, particularly until 9 am, have been identified by the NCM. Additionally, Abu Dhabi Police have issued an alert due to the reduced visibility caused by the fog, advising motorists to exercise caution and adhere to changing speed limits displayed on electronic information boards.
