Morning weather conditions in the UAE are expected to be foggy for the next five days.
Heavy fog enveloped Dubai on Friday morning and the temperature in the emirate dropped to 17°C.
The weekend for Abu Dhabi residents also started with chilly and foggy weather conditions, with temperatures at 17°C.
The fog is expected to lift in the two emirates by midday.
A spokesperson at the National Centre of Meteorology said fog started rolling into Dubai, Al Ain and west of Abu Dhabi on Thursday night.
"Tomorrow there is a chance of fog again and there will be poor visibility in the mornings. The weather will be stable in general," the spokesperson said.
Temperatures are expected to remain stable in the next five days, with no chance of rain.
Misty but pleasant weather, although partly cloudy, is expected in both emirates on Saturday.
Highs of 25°C are forecast in Dubai and Abu Dhabi this weekend.
Residents in Sharjah woke up to a cool 16°C, with lows of 13°C expected on Friday.
On Saturday, the emirate could welcome sunny and partly cloudy conditions.
Foggy weather has lingered across the UAE in the past few days.
Speed limits were reduced for a third time this week on Thursday because of dlow visibility caused by the dense fog.

Other must-tries
Tomato and walnut salad
A lesson in simple, seasonal eating. Wedges of tomato, chunks of cucumber, thinly sliced red onion, coriander or parsley leaves, and perhaps some fresh dill are drizzled with a crushed walnut and garlic dressing. Do consider yourself warned: if you eat this salad in Georgia during the summer months, the tomatoes will be so ripe and flavourful that every tomato you eat from that day forth will taste lacklustre in comparison.
Badrijani nigvzit
A delicious vegetarian snack or starter. It consists of thinly sliced, fried then cooled aubergine smothered with a thick and creamy walnut sauce and folded or rolled. Take note, even though it seems like you should be able to pick these morsels up with your hands, they’re not as durable as they look. A knife and fork is the way to go.
Pkhali
This healthy little dish (a nice antidote to the khachapuri) is usually made with steamed then chopped cabbage, spinach, beetroot or green beans, combined with walnuts, garlic and herbs to make a vegetable pâté or paste. The mix is then often formed into rounds, chilled in the fridge and topped with pomegranate seeds before being served.

Who are the Soroptimists?
The first Soroptimists club was founded in Oakland, California in 1921. The name comes from the Latin word soror which means sister, combined with optima, meaning the best.
The organisation said its name is best interpreted as ‘the best for women’.
Since then the group has grown exponentially around the world and is officially affiliated with the United Nations. The organisation also counts Queen Mathilde of Belgium among its ranks.

'The worst thing you can eat'
Trans fat is typically found in fried and baked goods, but you may be consuming more than you think.
Powdered coffee creamer, microwave popcorn and virtually anything processed with a crust is likely to contain it, as this guide from Mayo Clinic outlines:
Baked goods - Most cakes, cookies, pie crusts and crackers contain shortening, which is usually made from partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. Ready-made frosting is another source of trans fat.
Snacks - Potato, corn and tortilla chips often contain trans fat. And while popcorn can be a healthy snack, many types of packaged or microwave popcorn use trans fat to help cook or flavour the popcorn.
Fried food - Foods that require deep frying — french fries, doughnuts and fried chicken — can contain trans fat from the oil used in the cooking process.
Refrigerator dough - Products such as canned biscuits and cinnamon rolls often contain trans fat, as do frozen pizza crusts.
Creamer and margarine - Nondairy coffee creamer and stick margarines also may contain partially hydrogenated vegetable oils.
