The UAE has witnessed the lowest temperature on Thursday with 7.7 °C on the cards.

Residents woke up to the chilliest November morning with minimum temperature clocking a low of 7 degrees Celsius in Ras Al Khaimah’s remote and mountainous areas.

The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said, “The lowest temperature recorded over the country today morning was 7.7 °C in Jabal Jais at 06:45 UAE Local Time.”

The weather body expects that the weather will be partly cloudy to cloudy at times over the eastern, northern areas and over the sea, associated with little rainfall.

Cool and pleasant breezes will be blowing over the plains and inland.

Residents were seen basking in the sun, making the most of the pleasant morning.

A regular jogger at Al Majaz Park in Sharjah said, “This morning sun is very important. Since most of us suffer from Vitamin D deficiency, it is the ideal weather to get the Vitamin.”

The authorities said the maximum temperature on Thursday is expected to be around 29 degrees Celsius.  

A sunset is seen from a Ras Al Khaimah beach.

The weather also warned residents to avoid the sea on Thursday due to high waves and strong current.  

The NCM said, “Fresh Easterly winds and rough sea at times with speed reaching 45 km / hour with wave height 4 - 6 /7 feet are likely in the offshore areas of the Arabian Gulf from 00:15 until 13:00 PM Thursday 26/11/2020.”

Lifeguards on beaches across the country have been alerted to the current situation.
