The UAE is set to see more duststorms on Wednesday, as temperatures continue to drop after a sweltering start to the week.

Temperatures are expected to range between 23°C and 28°C in both Abu Dhabi and Dubai, according to the National Centre for Meteorology (NCM).

Fresh winds are expected across the country on Wednesday, causing blowing sand and dust, reducing horizontal visibility over the exposed areas at times, the NCM added.

The strong winds mean conditions are expected to be rough to very rough sea in the Arabian Gulf and rough in Oman Sea.

Humidity is expected to rise as high as 85% by the coast and islands and as low as 20% inland and in the mountains.
