The National Centre of Meteorology reported light rain in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain, and Al Ain early on Saturday morning. This weather pattern prompted Abu Dhabi Police to caution motorists about the unsettled conditions and advised them to follow variable speed limits indicated on road signs.

The recent weather activity follows a red weather alert issued due to heavy fog in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain on Friday morning. As per meteorological forecasts, rain is forecasted for Saturday and Sunday across various regions, with cloud formations primarily expected in western and coastal areas on Saturday.

Temperatures are set to soar in Abu Dhabi, with Saturday's highs reaching 26°C according to the Windy app. Meanwhile, Dubai is expected to experience slightly warmer conditions, with temperatures reaching up to 28°C.

Looking ahead, Sunday is anticipated to bring showers, with Dubai reaching a peak temperature of 31°C around midday. Abu Dhabi is expected to see a warm afternoon, with temperatures hitting 30°C.
