Blowing dust could affect visibility in large parts of the country on Sunday.
High winds with gusts of up to 40 km/hr will mostly affect central UAE, but some areas on the coast may also experience dusty skies, said the National Centre of Meteorology.
“Blowing dust causing poor horizontal visibility due to fresh wind with speed reaching up to 40 km/hr at times over some of internal and coastal areas,” said the bureau.
The yellow warning is in force up until 6pm on Sunday.
Abu Dhabi Police warned drivers to take care.
“#AbuDhabiPolice urges drivers to be cautious due to low visibility during high winds and dust,” said the force in a tweet.
“And for your safety and for the safety of others on the road, please do not be distracted by taking any videos or using your phone.”
Sunday will be hazy and partly sunny, becoming humid by night.
There will be a chance of risk and fog over some areas inland, particularly in the west, on Monday morning.
Humidity will reach up to 90 per cent on the coast and 85 per cent inland. Temperatures will top 46°C inland and 41 °C by the sea.
Al Ain could see heavy rain, starting on Monday and lasting until the weekend. Temperatures will, however, remain high there, reaching the mid-40s.
The rest of the country will be hazy or partly cloudy.
It will be very hot in the south, topping 47°C. Temperatures will hover around the low 40s elsewhere.
