The forecast highlights predominantly sunny skies over the UAE’s iconic cities, Abu Dhabi and Dubai, with temperatures expected to range between a 21°C and a 29°C. This mild warmth offers the perfect opportunity for outdoor activities—be it a leisurely walk along Dubai’s vibrant waterfront or a family picnic in one of Abu Dhabi’s lush parks. While the day will largely bask in sunlight, occasional clouds may drift across the horizon, adding a picturesque layer to the UAE’s already stunning landscapes.
As night falls and transitions into Saturday morning, the NCM predicts a rise in humidity, particularly in coastal and inland areas. This shift could cloak parts of the country in a delicate fog or mist, transforming early hours into a scene of serene beauty. The NCM advises residents, especially motorists, to exercise caution in these areas, as visibility might temporarily dip, lending an air of intrigue to the weekend’s start.
The atmosphere will be further enlivened by light to moderate Northwesterly winds, blowing at speeds of 10 kmph to 25 kmph, with gusts potentially reaching 35 kmph. These breezes will ripple through the desert dunes and city streets alike, offering a refreshing contrast to the day’s warmth and a subtle nod to the UAE’s timeless connection to its natural surroundings. For those near the coast, sea conditions will cooperate beautifully, with moderate to slight waves in the Arabian Gulf and calm waters in the Oman Sea—ideal for boating, fishing, or simply unwinding by the shore.
This forecast reflects the UAE’s unique meteorological dance, shaped by its position between the Arabian Gulf’s moisture and the arid expanse of its deserts. March, a month of transition, often brings such balanced conditions, with cooler nights fostering the fog that has become a seasonal hallmark. The interplay of these elements underscores the region’s dynamic climate, captivating residents and scientists alike.
“The weather on March 14 will showcase the UAE at its finest—vibrant, diverse, and full of character,” said an NCM spokesperson. “It’s a day to enjoy the outdoors and marvel at nature’s subtle artistry, from golden sunlight to the fleeting fog.”
With this forecast, the UAE invites all to experience a day where modern life meets natural wonder. Whether you’re capturing the sunrise through a misty lens or savoring the breeze on a rooftop, Friday’s weather promises to leave a lasting impression.
