As the UAE prepares for the winter season ahead, the National Center of Meteorology (NCM) has forecast unstable weather throughout the week, starting from November 3 (Monday) all the way up to November 7 (Friday).
Expect partly cloudy to cloudy skies, as well as repeated spells of light to moderate rainfall.

The NCM has also forecast occasionally active winds and varying sea conditions—ranging from calm to moderate—for this week, in addition to a slight drop in temperatures across the country on some days.
Al Ain's Raknah recorded a temperature of 13.7°C on Monday—the lowest in the country, as of 6:45 AM.

The unstable weather can be linked to the change from autumn to winter, marked by increased cloud formation—especially over western and coastal areas—bringing chances of light, scattered showers and cooler weather overall, a WAM report said.
However, humidity is expected to be high this week, especially on Tuesday.
What to expect for the rest of the week
Tuesday will see partly cloudy to occasionally cloudy skies, especially in the western and coastal swathes of the country. Some dusty weather is expected for the northern and eastern parts of the UAE.
Light to moderate winds of 10-25 km/h will be moving from southeast to northwest, occasionally reaching speeds of 40 km/h. The seas will be calm to moderate in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
Wednesday will see a continuation of Tuesday's humidity, with some spells of light to moderate rain, accompanied by a small rise in temperatures.
Light to moderate winds of 10-25 km/h will be moving from southeast to northwest, occasionally reaching speeds of 35 km/h. The seas will be calm in both the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.
Thursday sees the humidity continue into the morning over some coastal and inland areas, with some spells of light to moderate rain, and partly cloudy to occasionally cloudy skies over the Al Dhafra region.
Light to moderate winds (occasionally fresh) of 10-25 km/h will be moving from southeast to northwest, occasionally reaching speeds of 35 km/h. The seas will be calm to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and calm in the Sea of Oman.
Friday will also see a continuation of the humid spell, with partly cloudy to occasionally cloudy skies—especially over the western regions—overnight into Saturday, accompanied by a small decline in temperatures.
Light to moderate winds of 10-25 km/h will be moving from southeast to northwest, occasionally reaching speeds of 35 km/h. The seas will be calm to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and calm in the Sea of Oman.
