Fog and mist covered parts of the UAE early on Tuesday with cloudy, hazy and relatively hot conditions expected in the country.

It will be hot during day time and fair at night, the National Centre of Meteorology and Seismology said.

Some rainfall is expected in eastern areas of the Emirates in the afternoon due to increasing amount of cloud cover.

Light to moderate winds may cause dusty conditions over exposed areas.

NCMS forecasters warned residents that fog will cause poor visibility to less than 1000m and said humidity levels - highs of 90 per cent along the coast - will rise overnight.

Seas will be slight to moderate in the Arabian Gulf and the Sea of Oman.

Temperatures will range from 32 to 42°C along the coast and 31 to 45°C in the interior regions.

Yesterday rain fell in Al Fujairah and Al Manama.

The highest temperature recorded in the country on Monday was 46.9°C in Rezeen at 3.30pm.
