In a conversation with Khaleej Times, a weather expert explained why temperatures dropped below 2°C on both Saturday and Sunday as the country experienced varying levels of rainfall.

Winter temperatures in the UAE tend to fluctuate due to shifting atmospheric pressure systems, making the weather inconsistent, explained Dr Ahmed Habib, a climate expert at the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM). This is typical during the winter months, when such changes are common.

Just days after the UAE recorded its coldest day so far, with residents spotting frost and ice crystals, warmer weather is expected for at least a few days this week.
