The United Arab Emirates (UAE) continues its recovery efforts from the aftermath of unprecedented rainfall experienced earlier in the week, as meteorologists forecast another round of showers exactly a week later.
The UAE’s National Center of Meteorology (NCM) has issued a weather forecast for April 23, indicating partly cloudy conditions with occasional cloud cover. There is a possibility of light to moderate rainfall, with potential intensification in certain areas. Coastal regions may also witness a decrease in temperatures.
In its five-day forecast bulletin, NCM predicts light to moderate northeasterly to southeasterly winds for Tuesday, later shifting to northwesterly directions and potentially reaching speeds of 15 to 25 km per hour, with gusts reaching up to 40 km/hour.

Humidity is expected to be prevalent, especially in coastal and internal areas, with a possibility of fog or mist formation. However, as the day progresses, skies are anticipated to become fair to partly cloudy, particularly towards the east.
Winds will vary from light to moderate, blowing from the northeasterly to southeasterly direction, with speeds ranging between 10 and 20 kilometers per hour, occasionally reaching up to 30 km/hr.
Looking ahead to Saturday, NCM forecasts morning humidity, especially in coastal and internal areas, with a chance of fog or mist. By afternoon, skies are expected to become fair to partly cloudy, with some likelihood of cloud formation over mountains, potentially bringing rainfall.
As the UAE braces for another bout of showers, authorities and residents remain vigilant, continuing efforts to mitigate any potential impact and ensure the safety of individuals and infrastructure across the country.
