Video: Sheikh Hamdan shares breathtaking view of Dubai covered in fog

Sunday was the second day when Dubai and other parts of UAE were covered in thick fog. While it caused visibility issues on the roads for motorists, residents took to social media to share breathtaking videos and pictures.

Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Dubai Executive Council, joined the enthusiasts and shared a mesmerising video from top of a high-rise in Dubai.

Sheikh Hamdan had shared a video from the top of Burj Khalifa on Saturday morning as fog descended upon the Sheikh Zayed Road.

He shared the breathtaking views of Dubai engulfed in blanket of fog with just the tops of the lofty towers on the iconic SZR visible.

This is not the first time that the Crown Prince has given us a glimpse of his fabulous photography skills along with the beautiful views of the city.

The prince has been regularly photographing winter sights from around the country and sharing them on social media, including last year when his shots went viral online.

He had also shared videos of the rain that had hit UAE a few days back, while he was out driving during the downpour.

Fog and mist engulfed most parts of the UAE on Saturday, causing several flight delays and cancellations. The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has issued an advisory for residents as foggy days are set to continue for the next few days.

"There will be a fog formation with poor visibility over roads especially coastal, internal and northern areas during Saturday night and Sunday morning. So follow the traffic rules and drive safely," the advisory reads

The Abu Dhabi and Dubai Police had earlier urged drivers to maintain a safe distance between vehicles, follow traffic rules and adjust speed as per weather conditions. There was low to dense cover of fog over Abu Dhabi and Dubai airports and the weather conditions affected airline services.
