UAE: Dubai Weather Heavy Rains and Thunderstorms This Week. Although many weather warnings are coming up about the upcoming thunderstorms and rainfall in UAE, the impending scenario will not be the same as the rainfall that occurred on April 16, 2024. Moreover, the UAE has issued a warning for heavy rainfall, thunder, and lightning for parts of the UAE this week. As a result, this will likely come into action on Wednesday night and last until Thursday.
How much rain to expect?
According to the NCM, citizens should expect “moderate to heavy rain in scattered areas with lightning and thunder at times, with the possibility of some hail, starting in the west on Wednesday night and extending over most regions of the country on Thursday”. Furthermore, winds would also reach speeds of “65kph on Thursday”.
Moreover, between Monday to Wednesday, rain clouds will continue to form during the daytime in Eastern areas with the probability of it extending into western areas as well.
Has the heavy rain already hit parts of the UAE?
The heavy rain, thunderstorms, and hail storms hit Al Ain on Sunday afternoon. Additionally, the rain hit the village of Shuwaib in Al Alain. Moreover, there were also dusty conditions in Dubai as well. Other parts such as Al Qudra, Emirates Road, Saih Al Salam, and Jebel Ali also encountered heavy rainfall. Moreover, light rainfall was reported in Ajman’s Masfout region.
Why is all this heavy rain impacting the UAE?
Firstly, it is important to remember that a body of water surrounds the UAE. As a result, the country is affected by an extension of a surface low pressure from the Red Sea which is often accompanied by humid Southeasterly winds, Moreover, there is also an extension of low pressure from the Northwest. Therefore, there is a flow in the upper air levels and this leads to the formation of clouds. Moreover, these clouds then become associated with heavy rainfall with lightning and thunder.
