On Sunday, December 15, regions of the United Arab Emirates experienced mild rain and rather hazy sky. As seen on footage posted by Storm Centre, different areas saw rain, especially on the eastern coast and in the northern sections of the nation.
These films showed northern areas, including Ras Al Khaimah, undercast circumstances and rainfall along the eastern coast. Previously projecting the likelihood of rain for several northern and eastern regions, the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM)'s prediction turned out correct with rain seen all through the day.
The Dibba-Masafi route, where moderate rain was recorded, was one of the clearly impacted by rainfall region. Storm Centre uploaded a video depicting these circumstances showing the rain pouring on the road. This specific video underlined the presence of moderate rainfall that helped to produce the region's overcast and wet circumstances. The prognosis was confirmed as the rain fell in the afternoon as the weather bureau had expected that places like Dibba and Masafi would be among those most likely to get wet.
On Sunday, light rain was also recorded in Dubai on Emirates Road about 12:40 pm. The NCM issued a weather advisory verifying the rainfall and alerting citizens of possible damp conditions all across the city. In line with the forecasts issued by the meteorologists, the light showers comprised a component of the larger weather pattern influencing the nation.
