Humid Morning, Scorching Afternoon: UAE Weather Alert

Humid Morning, Sunny Afternoon: UAE Weather Forecast for Tomorrow

In the United Arab Emirates, early October still holds summer surprises, at least when it comes to the weather. While nights and mornings are gradually getting cooler, daytime temperatures remain high, especially in the Dubai and Abu Dhabi regions, where a peak temperature of up to 39°C can be expected tomorrow.

According to the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM), the entire country will experience clear or partly cloudy skies on October 4th, Saturday. The forecast warns not only of maximum temperatures but also of morning fog patches, mild winds, and occasional dust clouds.

Morning Fog Patches and Humid Air

In the morning hours, mist or fog may form in some interior and coastal areas of the UAE, especially where nighttime temperatures cool down more significantly. This mostly affects the western and northern regions, where high humidity and low air movement favor reduced visibility.

Therefore, travelers should exercise extra caution in the morning, as the fog can limit visibility, particularly on highways and open areas.

Daytime Heat: Up to 42°C Possible

While mornings may be more pleasant, daytime peak temperatures rise significantly. The hottest hours in the Dubai and Abu Dhabi areas are expected to see temperatures around 39°C, whereas in other parts of the country, the mercury may climb up to 42°C. The minimum temperature will be around 23°C, creating quite a strong contrast.

To combat the heat, it is advisable to seek shaded places, drink plenty of water, and, if possible, schedule outdoor activities for the morning or evening hours.

Mild, Occasionally Dusty Winds

According to the meteorological service, the wind will generally be mild or moderate but may occasionally pick up. These gusts may carry small dust clouds with them, especially in open, desert areas. Due to the dust, air quality may temporarily decrease, potentially causing respiratory symptoms for sensitive individuals.

In such weather conditions, it is recommended to stay indoors or wear face masks to avoid inhaling dust and pollen.

Sea Conditions

The condition of the Arabian Gulf will be mildly wavy or moderately choppy during the day but may occasionally become stormy in the evening. Wave activity in the Sea of Oman will remain milder. Those planning seaside activities, especially sailors, fishermen, or water sports enthusiasts, should consider the afternoon marine forecast.

While weekend beach activities are popular in the UAE, the forecasted wave activity for the evening means it is wise to check local advisories before entering the water.

Tropical Storm in the Arabian Sea – No Immediate Threat

The meteorological center has issued a warning regarding a low-pressure system that has developed over the Arabian Sea. The predictions suggest this system is likely to evolve into a tropical storm within the next three days. However, current calculations indicate that this phenomenon will not directly affect the UAE, so there is no cause for panic.

Nonetheless, authorities continue to monitor the situation, and if necessary, they will issue further updates to the public. The usual advice is to follow announcements issued through official channels and not be misled by unchecked information circulating on the internet.

What to Watch Out for Tomorrow?

Based on the October 4th forecast, it is advisable to be mindful of the following:

Morning: fog, reduced visibility, humid weather

Daytime: intense sunlight, heat, occasionally dusty air

Evening: increased humidity, possible sea wave activity, mild wind

When commuting, engaging in outdoor sports, and enjoying seaside programs, adjust activities according to the current weather conditions. Those staying in Dubai or Abu Dhabi should particularly be prepared for high temperatures, dressing appropriately, protecting against sunlight, and staying hydrated.

Final Thoughts

UAE weather at this time of year can change dynamically – a misty and foggy morning environment can quickly turn into scorching sunshine and hot desert air. Tomorrow is a good example of this dichotomy: while the day starts cooler and more humid in the morning, by afternoon, the desert heat returns.

Thus, those traveling, working outdoors, or planning family activities on Saturday will do well to follow forecasts and heed warnings from the meteorological center. Forward-thinking, proper hydration, and sun protection can help ensure a safe and pleasant weekend in the UAE.
