Abu Dhabi Weekend Weather: 23-26 July 2026
A hot, mostly fair Abu Dhabi outlook for Thursday through Sunday, with highs of 43-44°C through Saturday and a 42°C Sunday airport-area extension.
The short version
Abu Dhabi's weekend outlook is hot and mostly fair. The official NCM city bulletin puts Thursday's high at 43°C, rising to 44°C on Friday and Saturday, with overnight lows of 31-32°C. Winds stay light to moderate but can freshen, reaching 35 km/h. 1
Sunday's available extension is a sunny Al Bateen Airport forecast with a 42°C high, a 31°C low, and light, variable winds becoming northwesterly at 10-15 knots (19-28 km/h). It comes from the NCM-linked aviation forecast page, so read it as an airport-area indicator rather than a whole-emirate forecast. 2

What this means for plans
The heat is the main constraint. Thursday is the mildest daytime option of the NCM city-bulletin days, but the difference is small: Friday and Saturday peak at 44°C, while overnight temperatures remain around 31-32°C. Early starts and after-sunset plans will be the more practical choices for time outdoors; keep midday activity short and allow for the occasional stronger gust when moving between exposed areas.
For beach or boat plans, NCM's Abu Dhabi bulletin lists slight seas for Thursday through Saturday, with onshore waves around 1-2 feet and offshore waves around 2-3 feet. 1
