Sharjah records highest temperature at 50.2°C in Al Dhaid, residents urged to hydrate regularly
The UAE has once again breached the 50 degrees Celsius mark, the third time in three months. The National Center of Meteorology reported that the highest temperature recorded in the country today was 50.2°C in Al Dhaid, Sharjah, at 2:00 pm UAE local time. Health experts have urged residents and workers to protect themselves from the scorching heat and to stay hydrated regularly. Scientists have shown that recurring heatwaves are a clear indicator of global warming and that these heatwaves are expected to become more frequent, longer, and more intense. The number of extremely hot days has nearly doubled globally over the past three decades. According to a 2022 Greenpeace study, the Middle East is at high risk of water and food scarcity, as well as severe heatwaves, due to climate change. The report, which focused on six countries including the UAE, found that the region is warming nearly twice as fast as the global average, making its food and water supplies "extremely vulnerable" to climate change. According to the NCM, some cumulus clouds are expected to form in the east, possibly accompanied by rain on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons. This is due to the country being affected by an extension of a weak surface low-pressure system from the east and a surface high-pressure system from the west, accompanied by an extension of a weak low-pressure system in the upper atmosphere. Tuesday's weather is expected to be clear to partly cloudy, with a chance of cumulus clouds forming in the east during the afternoon, possibly accompanied by rain. Light to moderate southeasterly to northwesterly winds will blow, becoming active and dust-stirring at times at speeds of 10 to 25 km/h, reaching up to 40 km/h. Waves will be regular in the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman. Wednesday's weather is expected to be clear to partly cloudy, with a chance of cumulus clouds in the east during the afternoon, possibly accompanied by rain. Light to moderate southeasterly to northeasterly winds will blow, turning active and dust-stirring at times during the day at speeds of 10 to 20 km/h, reaching up to 40 km/h. Waves will remain regular in the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman. Thursday's weather will be clear to partly cloudy, with a chance of cumulus clouds forming in the east during the afternoon.
