Maximum temperatures on Monday will reach 33°C in Abu Dhabi and 34°C in Dubai, with lows of 21°C and 23°C respectively.
On Tuesday, it will be cloudy again, with a chance of rainfall over some coastal, northern and eastern areas during the daytime.
According to Windy.com, Tuesday afternoon will see rain and possible thunderstorms over the east coast in Fujairah and parts of Sharjah.
It will be humid on Tuesday night with the possibility of mist formation on Wednesday morning over some coastal areas.
Wednesday will be fair to partly cloudy in general, with a chance of rainfall in the afternoon.
Overnight humidity will see fog or mist affect some coastal and inland areas on Thursday morning. It will be fair to partly cloudy at times during the day.
Friday will be partly cloudy and dusty at times. Windy conditions could cause sandstorms in some northern and eastern areas.

What are NFTs?
Are non-fungible tokens a currency, asset, or a licensing instrument? Arnab Das, global market strategist EMEA at Invesco, says they are mix of all of three.
You can buy, hold and use NFTs just like US dollars and Bitcoins. “They can appreciate in value and even produce cash flows.”
However, while money is fungible, NFTs are not. “One Bitcoin, dollar, euro or dirham is largely indistinguishable from the next. Nothing ties a dollar bill to a particular owner, for example. Nor does it tie you to to any goods, services or assets you bought with that currency. In contrast, NFTs confer specific ownership,” Mr Das says.
This makes NFTs closer to a piece of intellectual property such as a work of art or licence, as you can claim royalties or profit by exchanging it at a higher value later, Mr Das says. “They could provide a sustainable income stream.”
This income will depend on future demand and use, which makes NFTs difficult to value. “However, there is a credible use case for many forms of intellectual property, notably art, songs, videos,” Mr Das says.
