Winds to Affect Most of Oman’s Coasts and Governorates

The Sultanate of Oman will experience significant wind activity from Sunday through Tuesday morning. This weather change will affect most governorates across the country. The winds are expected to be particularly strong along the coasts of Musandam Governorate, as well as the coasts of the Sea of Oman and South Al Sharqiyah Governorate.

As a result of this wind activity, sea waves along these coastal areas will rise. This could lead to challenging sea conditions, which authorities advise the public to monitor closely. Additionally, the winds may cause reduced visibility in some areas, especially in the coastal regions, making travel less safe. The Ministry of Transport, Communications, and Information Technology has issued guidelines for those traveling by sea during this period.

It is crucial for local residents and visitors to take necessary precautions when heading to the coast. Experts recommend avoiding non-essential sea travel during peak wind hours. Coastal communities should also be cautious about high waves and strong gusts of wind. Those planning outdoor activities or work near the coast should prepare for sudden weather changes.

As the winds continue through Monday and Tuesday, the weather conditions are expected to remain unpredictable. Authorities will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates. Moreover, this weather pattern highlights the importance of staying informed, especially for those who live or work near the sea.

In conclusion, the strong winds and rising sea waves could impact daily life in several governorates of Oman. People should remain alert, especially along the coasts of Musandam, the Sea of Oman, and South Al Sharqiyah. As the winds continue, authorities will offer further updates and recommendations.
