Now | Heavy rain clouds over parts of Oman and the UAE, accompanied by hail showers.

The latest satellite images indicate a significant development and widespread spread of cumulonimbus clouds over various parts of the Hajar Mountains, accompanied by varying intensity of rainfall, sometimes torrential, with hail showers and significant downward winds that stir up dust. The images also show the clouds extending toward the eastern highlands of the UAE.

Important recommendations during rainfall

These weather conditions call for caution against flash floods in mountainous and sloping areas, as well as reduced horizontal visibility due to dust stirred up by downwinds accompanying thunderstorms.

Declining weather activity at night

During the evening and night hours, the chances of rain are expected to gradually recede in most areas of the Hajar Mountains, with the possibility of limited local showers continuing in some areas. The weather will gradually become more stable as the night progresses, with the intensity of cumulus clouds decreasing.
