January is expected to be the coldest month of the year with an average maximum temperature of 24°C and an average minimum of 14°C. However, Dubai Municipality's forecasting system of "Najm Suhail," records show that temperatures have been reported as high as 28°C and as low as 12°C during the month.
According to the app, launched by Dubai Municipality for weather monitoring of the city of Dubai, fog is expected to be reduced gradually by mid-month and northwesterly winds (Shamali) are active, accompanied by cold wind causing dust and sand, and a gradual decrease in temperature levels with a temperature range of 10-20° C.
The northwesterly wind is expected to penetrate into the Arabian Gulf, causing some air turbulence and rain showers accompanied by thunderstorms in different parts of the emirate and cause a rise in sea waves. The weather will be pleasant and warm during the day with weak afternoon sea breezes and an average sea temperature of 21C.
