Warning: Strong winds and dust will blow over the Arabian Gulf starting Monday/Tuesday night, with a warning of poor horizontal visibility.

Arab Weather - The outputs of the numerical models processed by the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that northwesterly winds will blow at an active speed and laden with dust starting Monday/Tuesday night and continuing until Thursday, with speeds reaching approximately 40-50 km/h, accompanied by strong gusts exceeding 60 km/h. Waves will be disturbed with a height of more than one and a half meters on the eastern coasts of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and parts of the western coasts of the UAE, and the wave height in the depths will reach more than two and a half meters.

Dust and sandstorms caused by strong winds

Active winds are expected to stir up dust and sand in Qatar, Bahrain, and the UAE, as well as the eastern and central parts of Saudi Arabia. Dust concentrations are expected to increase in these areas, and horizontal visibility may be significantly reduced in some areas.

Arab Weather advises against going to sea in the coming days, avoiding sailing in small boats, and cautioning against the risk of increased dust and dirt in the atmosphere in many countries.

And God knows best.
