  • Arabic

UAE residents woke up to low clouds and high humidity on Tuesday as the unsettled start to the summer continues.

Temperatures hovered at about 34ºC in Dubai and 32ºC in Abu Dhabi at 7am. Moisture in the air made it feel more like 41ºC, forecaster AccuWeather reported.

The humidity has, in recent days, dropped off in the middle of the day as temperatures rise, before returning in the evening.

Temperatures will peak at 47ºC in the desert and at about 44ºC on the coast on Tuesday.

The National Centre of Meteorology issued a forecast for fog or mist on Wednesday morning and said there is a possibility of rain towards the country's east coast.

From Thursday up to Saturday, conditions will be similar, with humid nights and mornings, and only a very light breeze to act as relief.

Tailors and retailers miss out on back-to-school rush

Tailors and retailers across the city said it was an ominous start to what is usually a busy season for sales.
With many parents opting to continue home learning for their children, the usual rush to buy school uniforms was muted this year.
“So far we have taken about 70 to 80 orders for items like shirts and trousers,” said Vikram Attrai, manager at Stallion Bespoke Tailors in Dubai.
“Last year in the same period we had about 200 orders and lots of demand.
“We custom fit uniform pieces and use materials such as cotton, wool and cashmere.
“Depending on size, a white shirt with logo is priced at about Dh100 to Dh150 and shorts, trousers, skirts and dresses cost between Dh150 to Dh250 a piece.”

A spokesman for Threads, a uniform shop based in Times Square Centre Dubai, said customer footfall had slowed down dramatically over the past few months.

“Now parents have the option to keep children doing online learning they don’t need uniforms so it has quietened down.”
