Dubai, UAE. In different parts of the United Arab Emirates on Sunday, January 22, the long-awaited rains took place, which all Muslims of the country prayed for. Currently, there is strong cloud cover with a high probability of rainfall on the islands in Abu Dhabi, as well as in the north and east of the country.
The UAE National Center for Meteorology and Seismology also predicts moderate winds. On Monday, humidity will increase: up to 85% - on the coast, up to 90% - inland. Daytime temperatures in coastal areas will rise to 27 ° C, at night the thermometer will drop to 14 ° C. At the same time, cooling in the desert and mountains is expected to reach 7 ° C. Unrest is also expected in the Gulf of Oman and the Persian, from moderate to strong.
It is worth recalling that the nationwide prayer for rain, or alatu-l-istiskai, was performed in all mosques of the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday, January 10, at 07.30. Such a request was made by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE. He called on all Muslims of the country to pray for the sending of rain, which in Islam is one of the natural blessings. It should be noted that today the lack of rainfall is very severely affecting the sowing campaign in the UAE - many farmers were forced to stop planting due to drought.
