Isolated rainfall is expected around the coasts of Al Wusta and South Sharqiyah within the next two days.
Seas are expected to be rough over the Arabian sea (three to four meters) and Sea of Oman (1.2 to two meters) concurrently with high tide between 3 and 5 pm today and tomorrow, which will cause inundation over low-level coastal areas.
