Distance learning will be implemented with e-learning platforms to be activated in all government and private schools, universities, and colleges in all governorates except Dhofar and Al Wusta governorates, from March 24, 2026, until Thursday, March 26, 2026.
The decision was due to the impact of a trough of low pressure on some governorates of the Sultanate of Oman.
Due to the continued impact of the weather system, the chances of heavy thunderstorms will persist through tonight and Monday, according to Oman Meteorology.
These storms are expected to be accompanied by hail and fresh downdraft winds as a result of the associated cloud formations in the governorates of Muscat, Al Dhahirah, Al Dakhiliyah, North Al Sharqiyah, South Al Batinah, Musandam, North Al Batinah, Al Buraimi, South Al Sharqiyah, and Al Wusta.
Warnings for March 24-30
The weather condition is expected to continue affecting most governorates of the Sultanate of Oman, with rainfall of varying intensity that may be thundery at times, with a chance of flashflooding in valleys and wadis.
Forecasts for this period will be updated and detailed in upcoming reports.
The Civil Aviation Authority urges everyone to exercise caution during rainfall, flash floods, and reduced visibility, to check sea conditions before heading out, and to follow the official weather bulletins issued by the authority.
