Winds will be moderate to fresh blowing from the northwest at speeds of 15 to 30 kmph. However, gusts may pick up and be strong at times over the sea, reaching up to 45 kmph. These winds will stir up dust and sand, potentially reducing horizontal visibility.

The sea will be rough to very rough at times during daytime in the Arabian Gulf and slight in Oman Sea. The NCM issued an orange and yellow alert in Arabian Sea for rough sea.

Residents have been advised to be on the lookout in case of outdoor activities and to expect hazardous weather. They have also been urged to comply with authorities' advice.
