Al-Ali added that winds will be variable to southeasterly, light to moderate in speed, and occasionally active. There are also chances of fog forming in the evening and during the early morning hours, with visibility gradually improving.

He clarified that Friday’s weather will be hot and partly cloudy, with winds from the southwest to southeast, light to moderate in speed, occasionally active, ranging between 15 and 50 kilometers per hour, with chances of dust in exposed areas. Maximum temperatures are expected to range between 36 and 38 degrees Celsius. The sea will be light to moderate in wave height, occasionally higher, ranging between two and six feet.

He noted that nighttime weather will be mild and relatively humid, with chances of scattered rainfall and light fog in some areas. Minimum temperatures are expected to range between 21 and 23 degrees Celsius.
