Weather conditions in Dubai on Tuesday will be mostly sunny but with a chance of partial cloud.

Temperatures are predicted to hit 30°C in the afternoon, with freshening winds of up to 21kph providing some relief from the sun.

The National Centre of Meteorology says humidity could hit 85 per cent as a low pressure system extends across north and east areas of the UAE.

The forecast for Abu Dhabi promises a similar day of light winds and partial cloud.

Peak temperatures are expected to be slightly warmer, hitting 31°C in the early afternoon.

However, lighter breezes of only 14 kilometres per hour will provide less relief from the muggy conditions.
