UAE weather tomorrow: Temperatures to decrease; could get dusty at times
The forecast for Saturday, May 31 is for partly cloudy skies with a gradual decrease in temperatures, according to the bulletin issued by the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM).
It could get dusty at times with blowing dust and sand reducing the horizontal visibility at times, with a speed of 15kmph and 30kmph, reaching 40kmph.
The sea will be rough in the Arabian Gulf and slight to moderate, becoming rough by evening in Oman Sea.
It will be mostly sunny in Abu Dhabi with temperatures in the UAE capital likely to see a high of 40°C and a low of 28°C, while in Dubai, it will be 43°C with a low of 27°C.
Sharjah will witness a high of 42°C and a low of 28°C.
The NCM had on May 27 said that after days of intense heat, residents across the UAE can look forward to some cooler days.
Temperatures will begin to dip by four to five degrees in the coming days, a senior meteorologist had said.
The scorching conditions were caused by an internal low-pressure system from the south of the UAE, pushing hot desert air across the region. Last weekend saw temperatures soar to a staggering 51.6°C in Sweihan, Al Ain, marking the hottest May day ever recorded in the country since 2003. The previous record stood at 50.2°C in Al Shawamekh, Abu Dhabi, experienced in 2009.

UAE weather: Hot and dusty week ahead, with chance of rain and fog
Hot and dusty weather is expected in the UAE this week, with a chance of rain over parts of the country. Rain could fall on Fujairah, Al Ain and some southern parts on Monday afternoon. Similar conditions may continue throughout Tuesday, especially in mountainous and desert areas, the National Centre of Meteorology said. Humidity levels will rise at night and in the early mornings, particularly in the western region of Abu Dhabi, throughout this week. This could lead to fog or mist, making conditions hazy for early morning drivers. Daytime temperatures will remain high, with the hottest areas being inland cities such as Al Ain, where it could reach 47°C on Thursday. Coastal areas, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, will feature temperatures between 40°C and 46°C this week. Mountainous regions will be slightly cooler, with highs in the upper 30s. Nights will offer little relief from the heat, with temperatures in the low 30s across the country.

Gaza aid: UAE ship carrying hospital, food, essentials to set off Monday
The UAE is preparing its eighth shipment of humanitarian aid on Saturday, which will depart Khalifa Port in Abu Dhabi on Monday. The loading of the ship began on July 16, and includes food parcels, tents, relief kits, clothing, mattresses, hygiene kits, and other essentials. It will also carry a field hospital that will support Gaza's health sector. The eighth mission, part of ' Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 ', is set to reach the Al Arish Port in Egypt. The expected arrival time will take 14 days to reach the Egyptian port, relief operations coordinator, Hmoud Al Efari, told Khaleej Times. 'There, we have a rescue team, who will help transport the aid through land via trucks to reach the Gaza Strip,' he said. The mission is supported by the Emirati Red Crescent, Khalifa Foundation, Zayed Charitable and Humanitarian Foundation, Dar Al Ber Society, Ajman-based International Charity Organisation, Al Ihsan Charity Association, Al Etihad Charity Foundation and Ras Al Khaimah-based Al Qasimi Foundation. Watch the video below: New pipeline On Wednesday, the UAE announced the launch of the largest desalinated water supply project to help support the besieged population. The pipeline will connect the UAE-established desalination plant from Egypt to a displacement area in southern Gaza, between Khan Younis and Rafah governorates. It is expected to provide 15 litres of desalinated water per person daily, benefiting around 600,000 residents in southern Gaza. Blockade and famine Back in April of this year, the World Food Programme and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) reported that food stocks in the Strip were 'exhausted, even as supplies of lifesaving assistance pile up at border crossings waiting to be brought in.' The United Nations has said that Israel has allowed 'only around 6,000 tonnes of wheat flour' in June, but that '10,000 tonnes are urgently needed in the face of rising malnutrition.'
