Dubai Recent Unstable Weather Condition
“Some areas may experience thunder and lightning on Wednesday night and Thursday, and there’s also a chance of hail.”
Wednesday night is probably when it will begin in the west, moving across much of the region on Thursday, mostly across the western, coastal, and some eastern regions.
Things should get better by Friday, and as the weekend approaches, the clouds will gradually disappear.
There may be a chance of light to moderate rainfall in some places, especially in the southern and eastern regions of the United Arab Emirates.
“The unsettled forecast as we move into May follows unprecedented weather conditions seen across the UAE in April, when the country recorded its heaviest rainfall since records began.”
