The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has warned of potential rainfall over some parts of the UAE on Monday, particularly over the eastern coast.

The authority also issued an orange alert for some parts of the country, warning of strong winds carrying dust. An advisory by the Centre has urged residents to be on the lookout when outdoors. Windy conditions, leading to dust-filled air, reduce visibility when driving.
