UAE Temperatures Reach 47°C as Rising Humidity Triggers Fog Risk

The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has recorded temperatures peaking at 47°C in the UAE’s internal regions, warning residents of a sharp increase in humidity levels that will likely trigger fog formation early next week.

This atmospheric shift creates the primary conditions for mist and dense fog, particularly from Sunday night through Monday morning. The NCM confirmed that light to moderate winds, freshening at times, will cause blowing dust during the day. Wind speeds are expected to reach up to 35 km/h in certain areas, though sea conditions in the Arabian Gulf and the Oman Sea are currently forecast to remain slight to moderate.
