UAE BARQ برق الإمارات – نبضك
Residents living in the northern emirates and coastal areas are advised to take precaution and brace for intermittent and torrential rains beginning Saturday, November 9 until Tuesday, November 12, the National Center of Meteorology (NCM) said on Wednesday.
In its four-day forecast, the NCM said the UAE will experience scattered rains of varying degrees.
Showers will begin Saturday as clouds increase with a chance of scattered rain starting in the morning over the islands and gradually approaching the coastal and the northern parts of the country in the afternoon.
“The country is affected by an extension of surface low pressure that leads to flow of moist warm air mass from the south. This weather condition is accompanied with an upper trough of low pressure from the north and the northeast, leading to formation of rainy clouds over scattered areas, associated with lightning and thunder at times with fresh gusty winds,” an NCM spokesperson explained.
Rains will intensify by Sunday and Monday as downpours of varying degrees will be associated with thunder and lightning at times over different parts, resulting in flash floods in the northern emirates.
By Tuesday, clouds with gradually decrease with a chance of rain over the western coasts and east of the country during the day.
