The municipality advised the public to follow weather forecast announcements from official sources and avoid exposure to dust and dirt particles.
Those staying at home should ensure that all doors and windows are properly closed to prevent dust from entering buildings.
The municipality also urged the public to dial 993 to contact the Emergencies Office in the Municipality of Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Al Dhafra in the event of any emergency, such as sand gathering or falling trees.
The alert will stay in place from 4am to 7pm on Saturday.
