The UAE’s National Centre of Meteorology has issued an advisory for light showers, patchy fog and reduced visibility across Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman through the morning of 6 February. Temperatures will hover around 24 °C, with humidity peaking overnight.
While the weather system is typical of the late-winter transition, Emirates Airline has reminded passengers to monitor flight-status updates, noting that fog can trigger flow-control restrictions at DXB. Dubai Airports says contingency holding pads and low-visibility taxi procedures are in place to keep runway throughput stable.

Ride-hailing operators Careem and Uber have activated surge-pricing caps after previous rainstorms saw fare spikes of up to 240 percent. Corporate travel managers may still see minor cost variance on morning pick-ups and should build buffer time into airport transfers.
Road traffic authorities urge drivers to use fog lights and maintain safe distances, particularly on Sheikh Zayed Road and Emirates Road where mist tends to be heaviest. For businesses running commuter shuttles, re-checking insurance requirements for adverse-weather operations is advisable.
The NCM forecasts clearer skies by late afternoon, but another wave of humidity could create pre-dawn fog on 7 February, so duty-travel planners should stay alert to further advisories.
