Jais mountains are expected to be partly cloudy with snow. Islands north of the country will also recieve rainfall.
The UAE is breaking the record for the most amount of rainfall to hit the country since 1996. And it’s still accumulating.The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) said that as of 7.23am on Sunday, the highest amount of rainfall from 9-12 January was reported in Al Shakla, Al Ain, with 190.4 mm.
The last time the UAE witnessed such vast amounts of rain was 24 years ago in Khor Fakkan, which saw 144 mm of accumulated rainfall.
This is happening because the UAE is enhancing clouds that entered and passed over the country from the western parts of the region and the Red Sea. They were doing so through cloud seeding. Between Thursday evening and Saturday afternoon, the NCM said they had completed 9 cloud seeding flights.
