Dubai Wakes Up Under A Thick Blanket Of Heavy Fog
The message to motorists this morning? Drive carefully!
Visibility has been reduced across the Emirates and a thick blanket of fog has covered parts of the city. September 21 marked the official end of summer in the UAE and today brings a chillier AM! People are sharing snaps and videos of the cooler morning, while authorities have issued a fog warning reminding motorists to take it easy on the roads.

The fog is already clearing, but early birds caught it hanging low across the Marina
