MUSCAT: The Oman Meteorology Department has issued an official weather notice forecasting a significant rise in maximum temperatures on Wednesday, July 30, 2025. The department highlighted that several regions across the country are expected to experience above-average heat, which may impact daily activities and health conditions, especially among vulnerable populations. Residents and visitors are advised to take necessary precautions to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged exposure to the sun during peak hours.
Meteorologists explained that this temperature increase is linked to regional climatic patterns influenced by shifting air masses and high-pressure systems dominating the Arabian Peninsula. The prevailing weather conditions are expected to bring clear skies and minimal cloud cover, which contribute to the intensification of daytime heat. Coastal areas might experience slight relief due to sea breezes, but inland and desert regions are likely to record the highest temperature spikes.
The department also cautioned that elevated temperatures could exacerbate risks related to heat exhaustion and heatstroke, urging the public to monitor weather updates and adjust their routines accordingly. Authorities are coordinating with health and emergency services to ensure readiness and swift response in case of heat-related incidents. Additionally, there are recommendations for outdoor workers and vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and those with chronic illnesses to limit strenuous activities during the hottest parts of the day.
Looking ahead, the Oman Meteorology Department plans to continue monitoring the weather developments closely and provide timely updates to help residents prepare and stay safe. The forecast serves as a reminder of the importance of climate awareness and adapting daily practices to changing environmental conditions. Citizens are encouraged to follow official channels for the latest advisories and implement recommended safety measures during this period of increased heat.
