DUBAI // Patrially cloudy skies and light rain are forecast across much of the country.
On Sunday night, heavy rain accompanied by lightning and thunder fell in Al Quaa, a south-western area of Abu Dhabi which borders Oman.
Residents of Al Saadiah in Sharjah also experienced light rain.
On Monday scattered showers are expected in the western region, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and inland along much of the UAE-Oman border.
Temperatures will range between 25°C and 36°C along the coast with lows of 22°C and highs of 40°C expected further inland.
Humidity levels will peak at 80 per cent and will increase overnight.
Moderate winds will freshen conditions but are also likely to pick up blowing dust and reduce visibility across exposed areas of the country.
North-westerly winds could be as high as 44 kph along the coast and inland.
Waters will be moderate to rough in the Arabian Gulf and Sea of Oman.

Safety 'top priority' for rival hyperloop company
The chief operating officer of Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, Andres de Leon, said his company's hyperloop technology is “ready” and safe.
He said the company prioritised safety throughout its development and, last year, Munich Re, one of the world's largest reinsurance companies, announced it was ready to insure their technology.
“Our levitation, propulsion, and vacuum technology have all been developed [...] over several decades and have been deployed and tested at full scale,” he said in a statement to The National.
“Only once the system has been certified and approved will it move people,” he said.
HyperloopTT has begun designing and engineering processes for its Abu Dhabi projects and hopes to break ground soon.
With no delivery date yet announced, Mr de Leon said timelines had to be considered carefully, as government approval, permits, and regulations could create necessary delays.
