UAE: The ongoing dust storm, which has been affecting several regions, is expected to last until 9 p.m. tonight. The storm has caused significant disruptions, with reduced visibility and hazardous driving conditions across major highways. Authorities are urging the public to stay informed about the latest weather updates and to take necessary precautions when traveling. People in the affected areas should limit outdoor activities to avoid inhaling dust particles, which can be harmful to health.
In addition to the dust storm, the weather forecast for Thursday morning indicates the possibility of fog and mist in certain areas. This will likely result in further reductions in visibility, especially during the early hours. Travelers are advised to drive cautiously, using headlights and slowing down in areas where visibility is limited. Authorities are monitoring the situation and may issue additional warnings if conditions worsen.
The dust storm has been particularly impactful in the coastal and inland areas, where strong winds have led to drifting sand and dust, further exacerbating the already difficult conditions. Local officials are working to clear roads and ensure that essential services continue to operate. Meanwhile, health experts have advised people with respiratory issues to stay indoors and avoid strenuous outdoor activities to protect their health during this challenging weather event.
As the storm is expected to clear by late evening, the fog and mist will likely dissipate by mid-morning Thursday. However, it is important to remain vigilant and stay updated on weather alerts throughout the night. With changing weather conditions, the public must be prepared for any sudden changes and take the necessary precautions to ensure safety. Authorities continue to work closely with weather services to provide timely updates as the situation evolves.
