The UAE could be in for a wet start to March.
The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) on Monday warned bouts of rain could hit parts of the country over the next few days.
It also forecast decreasing temperatures and several days of strong winds that could reach speeds of 40kph and kick up dust clouds.
A maximum temperature of 36ºC was expected during the day on Monday, while it could sink as low as 12ºC, the NCM said.
"[It will be] partly cloudy to cloudy and hazy at times with a probability of rainfall over the sea, islands and some coastal, northern and western areas with a decrease in temperatures especially westward," the NCM said in its Tuesday forecast.
Looking further ahead, the NCM forecast a chance of rain every day until Friday and warned that fog could sweep through parts of the country on Friday and Saturday morning.
Humidity rates are also expected to rise by the weekend.
The UAE has experienced mixed weather conditions this year, with bouts of rain followed by a surge in temperatures.
Large parts of the Emirates were lashed by heavy rain in January.
The wet weather towards the end of the month led authorities in Ras Al Khaimah to make a temporary switch to remote learning for pupils at government-run schools.
Officials said the move was for the safety of parents and pupils.
Earlier this month, dust storm warnings wee issued as wind speeds exceeded 40kmph.
In Sharjah, Kalba City Municipality temporarily closed all parks due to the unstable weather.
The deluge of rain, however, has given way to soaring temperatures in recent weeks, above those typically expected in the winter months.
