Residents across the UAE experienced another day of summer-like conditions on June 11 as temperatures rose sharply across several parts of the country.
Meteorologists forecast hot and predominantly dry weather, with daytime highs reaching around 44°C in some inland and exposed areas, while coastal locations remained slightly cooler due to sea breezes.The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) indicated that stable weather conditions would dominate much of the country, accompanied by clear to partly cloudy skies.
Although no significant rainfall was expected, strong sunshine and rising temperatures contributed to uncomfortable outdoor conditions during the afternoon hours.Weather experts noted that northwesterly and southwesterly winds would continue to affect the region. While generally moderate, these winds were expected to become stronger at times, particularly in open desert areas. As a result, blowing dust and sand could reduce visibility on some roads and create challenging conditions for motorists traveling through exposed locations.
The latest forecast highlights the UAE’s transition into the peak summer season, a period typically characterized by high temperatures, limited rainfall, and increased dryness. Humidity levels were expected to rise during the evening and early morning hours, especially along coastal regions, making conditions feel warmer than the actual temperature.Health specialists advise residents to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during peak daytime hours.
Outdoor workers and individuals participating in recreational activities are encouraged to take regular breaks and follow heat-safety recommendations issued by local authorities.Despite the intense heat, weather conditions remain within the expected range for this time of year. Historical climate records show that June is among the hottest months in the UAE, with inland temperatures frequently exceeding 40°C.
Forecasters expect similar weather patterns to continue throughout the coming weeks as summer strengthens across the region.Authorities continue to monitor conditions closely and urge residents to stay informed through official weather updates, particularly when dust, reduced visibility, or elevated temperatures are forecast.
