A sunny start will keep temperatures high in Dubai and Abu Dhabi on Friday.

Dubai will be the slightly hotter city with a high of 40°C, compared with 38°C in Abu Dhabi.

There is a possibility that the morning’s humidity, which could reach 90 per cent, may give way to light rain in the afternoon. Moderate winds are likely to bring freshness, before fog formation in the late evening.

Both the Arabian Gulf and Oman Seas will be slight to moderate.
