We are close to the month of August and the mercury is soaring so brace yourself for a hot and humid day in UAE.

Continuing their summer forecast, the National Centre of Meteorology and Seismology (NCMS) said that the day will be 'hot to very hot' in general, although it will be partly cloudy and hazy at times.

The possibility of rain continues as NCMS says the amount of clouds will increase over the eastern and southern areas, becoming convective by afternoon, and associated with rainfall times. Light to moderate winds will blow in general, freshening at times during daytime causing blowing dust/sand over the exposed areas.

The humidity forecast for the day is 65 to 90 per cent in coastal areas and 55 to 80 per cent in the internal areas. Sea will be slight to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and Oman Sea.
