The rain on Sunday that caused disruption to the UAE looks likely to continue on Monday.

Dubai and Abu Dhabi can expect a cloudy day with some rain expected. Temperatures will be in the high 20s.

A moderate breeze blowing to the west in the morning will turn southwards in the afternoon before slowing further in the evening.

On Sunday evening the National Centre for Meteorology issued a warning saying there was a continued chance of rain, especially in the country's west.

The weather bureau also warned that fresh winds would blow dust and sand, and reduce visibility. The seas are expected to be rough with cloud overhead.

After some flights were delayed on Sunday at Dubai and Abu Dhabi airports, normal service resumed early on Monday morning.

Departures and arrivals seemed to be largely on time at both airports.
