The National Center of Meteorology (NCM) has issued weather forecast for March 8-10 amid weather fluctuations across the UAE.

From early Friday morning until afternoon, cloud cover gradually increased over the islands and in some western and southern areas, with light to moderate rain, according to a statement issued.

From Friday evening and late night into Saturday evening (the peak of the weather fluctuations), the country will experience strong unstable weather conditions as cloud cover increases across most of the country, accompanied by convective clouds associated with heavy rain, lightning, thunder and occasional hail in some areas.



This may lead to flash floods and significant rainfall accumulation. Strong winds associated with convective clouds could also cause a reduction in horizontal visibility.



On Sunday, the weather conditions will be concentrated over the northern and eastern areas of the country, with continued rainfall.

The unstable weather will gradually weaken and will be confined to the eastern areas by the evening and into Sunday night. On Monday, there is expected to be no rain, but a chance of fog formation in the morning.
