MUSCAT: The Oman Meteorology Department has issued a weather warning due to the expected onset of active northwesterly winds tomorrow morning. These winds are anticipated to persist for several days, affecting various regions of the country. The department has cautioned that the winds could reach significant speeds, creating a potentially hazardous environment, particularly for individuals engaging in outdoor activities. Travelers and those in vulnerable areas are advised to exercise caution.
The winds are likely to cause a drop in temperatures, especially in the coastal areas, while also resulting in rough sea conditions. Mariners and fishermen are strongly urged to avoid venturing into the sea during this period. These conditions may also disrupt transportation systems, particularly in more exposed locations, due to the challenging weather.
In addition to the strong winds, the weather warning also includes the possibility of sandstorms in certain parts of the country. This may lead to reduced visibility, making travel difficult, especially on the highways. The Oman Meteorology Department has urged the public to stay informed and updated on the latest weather developments through official channels.
Authorities have been placed on alert, and emergency response teams are prepared for any weather-related incidents that may arise. The public is encouraged to take necessary precautions, including securing loose objects and avoiding unnecessary travel during the peak of the wind activity.
