The National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority, meanwhile, has urged residents to follow instructions from the authorities concerned during the unstable weather "in order to preserve lives and properties".
Heavy rains lashed the country last week, with water entering sections of The Dubai Mall. The thunderstorm had wreaked havoc across the country, with roads being flooded, schools closing early and even disrupting flights at the Dubai International Airport.
