The department also added that this period will also see a reduction in drought-like conditions and an increase in humidity most noticeable along the coast line.

QMD further noted that the seasonal hot, intense, dry wind known locally as 'Simoom,' will also intensify until midnight.

These changes in weather patterns contribute to the formation of light fog and a general decrease in wind activity, resulting in calmer winds, it added.
