Abu Dhabi weekend weather, 6–9 August 2026: 47°C Thursday; Sunday still missing from NCM bulletin
NCM's latest Abu Dhabi bulletin keeps Thursday–Saturday at 46–47°C, with a Saturday afternoon rain chance; Sunday is not yet published in the city forecast.
The short version
Thursday is the hottest day in the current forecast at 47°C, with a 35°C overnight low. Friday and Saturday reach 46°C. Saturday is the only day with an explicit chance of convective cloud and afternoon rainfall. Winds stay light to moderate but can freshen, reaching 35–40 km/h and causing blowing dust on Thursday and Saturday. 1
The latest NCM city bulletin covers Tuesday through Saturday. It does not publish a Sunday 9 August row, so this issue leaves Sunday's high, low, conditions, and wind unfilled rather than importing an unverified forecast. 1

What this means for plans
Heat is the limiting factor across the three days NCM does cover. Thursday has the highest daytime temperature and gust ceiling. Friday has the coolest overnight low at 33°C, while Saturday stays warmest overnight at 36°C. 1
For outdoor time, early morning or after sunset will be more forgiving than the afternoon. Keep Thursday and Saturday plans flexible around freshening winds and blowing dust. If a Saturday plan depends on dry conditions, the afternoon rain caveat is the one forecast change to watch; NCM does not give a rainfall probability in this bulletin. 1
Sunday is a coverage limit, not a prediction. The NCM Abu Dhabi weather bulletin dated 4 August 2026 is the original source for the Thursday–Saturday figures above; check NCM again before making a Sunday-specific plan.
