Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority on Sunday announced that ferry services will be subject to temporary disruption because of adverse weather conditions.

"Due to the expected adverse weather conditions, the intercity ferry service between Dubai and Sharjah will be subjected to temporary disruption," the RTA said.

"Customers are kindly asked to contact RTA Customer Happiness Centre on 800 9090 for further information," it said in a tweet.

The RTA's alert comes after the UAE weather department issued a dust alert applicable from 12.20pm to 6pm.

"Northwesterly winds accompanied with dust load and blowing dust resulting in a reduction in visibility at times," the NCM said.

The alert is applicable almost through the country's landmass.
