Summer holidays are finished but summer temperatures are not.
The National Center of Meteorology and Seismology says daytime highs will remain in the 40s this week, and the evenings and early mornings will be even more humid than usual.
As a result, heavy fog is expected along the northern coast.
Commuters to Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Al Ain should also be cautious tomorrow morning, when mist and fog are expected. Conditions should clear between 8am and 9am.
Coastal temperatures will range from 36°C to 42°C during the day, dipping to between 32°C and 37°C at night.
Inland temperatures will vary more, rising to between 41°C and 47°C during the day, then cooling to between 25°C and 31°C at night.
Dubai Police are anticipating an increase in traffic when school resumes this week.
"There's already more traffic this week in the morning and a little bit more in the afternoon," Lt Imran Abdullah said.
From next week, traffic police will be assigned to all schools to keep the Range Rovers flowing.
"All our motorbikes will be out and even our senior police are on duty around the schools."

US households add $601bn of debt in 2019
American households borrowed another $601 billion (Dh2.2bn) in 2019, the largest yearly gain since 2007, just before the global financial crisis, according to February data from the New York Federal Reserve Bank.
Fuelled by rising mortgage debt as homebuyers continued to take advantage of low interest rates, the increase last year brought total household debt to a record high, surpassing the previous peak reached in 2008 just before the market crash, according to the report.
Following the 22nd straight quarter of growth, American household debt swelled to $14.15 trillion by the end of 2019, the New York Fed said in its quarterly report.
In the final three months of the year, new home loans jumped to their highest volume since the fourth quarter of 2005, while credit cards and auto loans also added to the increase.
The bad debt load is taking its toll on some households, and the New York Fed warned that more and more credit card borrowers — particularly young people — were falling behind on their payments.
"Younger borrowers, who are disproportionately likely to have credit cards and student loans as their primary form of debt, struggle more than others with on-time repayment," New York Fed researchers said.
