UAE weather: Fair to partly cloudy skies, rising humidity and fog risk

As summer heat continues to intensify across the UAE, with a sweltering 49.2°C recorded yesterday in Owtaid, Al Dhafra Region, let's take a look at the weather forecast for Tuesday.

The UAE's National Center of Meteorology reports that the country will experience the effects of a weak surface pressure system, coupled with an extension of an upper air high-pressure system. This combination is expected to result in fair to partly cloudy conditions across most regions, with low clouds appearing particularly along the east coast.
