Parts of the UAE woke to showers on Wednesday as the bout of unseasonal weather continued.
Rain fell in areas of Abu Dhabi and Dubai as dark clouds formed over many parts.
Throughout the day it will be partly cloudy in the north, east and southern areas, which could bring further rain, said forecasters.
The unsettled weather is caused by a low pressure system, which has brought lashing rain and flooding to many parts of the country, including the major cities on the coast, over the last week.
On Saturday, footage posted to Storm Centre, a popular channel that tracks the weather, showed the extent of the rain, with waterfalls appearing on Al Ain's Jebel Hafeet after the sudden downpours.
On Sunday, further heavy downpours affected Khatt and Digdaga in Ras Al Khaimah, in Umm Al Quwain and Al Sila in Abu Dhabi's Al Dhafra region.
Temperatures will reach a high of 43C on the coast and 46 inland.
Winds will be light to moderate, becoming gusty at times, blowing dust.
There could be more rain on Thursday in the east and south.

Which honey takes your fancy?
Al Ghaf Honey
The Al Ghaf tree is a local desert tree which bears the harsh summers with drought and high temperatures. From the rich flowers, bees that pollinate this tree can produce delicious red colour honey in June and July each year
Sidr Honey
The Sidr tree is an evergreen tree with long and strong forked branches. The blossom from this tree is called Yabyab, which provides rich food for bees to produce honey in October and November. This honey is the most expensive, but tastiest
Samar Honey
The Samar tree trunk, leaves and blossom contains Barm which is the secret of healing. You can enjoy the best types of honey from this tree every year in May and June. It is an historical witness to the life of the Emirati nation which represents the harsh desert and mountain environments
