The UAE is officially shifting into a cooler phase as brisk winds and chilly evenings signal the arrival of more unstable weather. Recent reports from the National Centre of Meteorology indicated that conditions were ripe for rainfall on Saturday, accompanied by a noticeable drop in temperatures. Across the eastern regions, these predictions held true, with areas like Ras Al Khaimah, Kalba, and Masafi experiencing persistent showers and even rare bouts of hail.

As the rain intensified, motorists navigated wet, slick roads while witnessing small streams of water gather along the edges of the highways. Social media updates from Storm Centre highlighted the dramatic scenes in Masafi, Marbadh, and Shawka, where the downpours transformed the landscape. Residents in Ras Al Khaimah were particularly treated to the unusual sound of hailstones rattling against their vehicles, marking a significant and refreshing change in the typical desert climate.
