MUSCAT- Oman’s Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) on Friday forecast clear to partly cloudy skies over the coastal areas of Dhofar Governorate and mainly clear weather across the rest of the Sultanate.

The authority said there are chances of low clouds and fog formation over parts of South Al Sharqiyah, Al Wusta and Dhofar governorates, which could lead to reduced visibility in some areas.

It also warned of possible dust rising over desert and open areas, causing a further reduction in visibility.

The CAA advised residents and motorists to remain cautious, especially during early morning hours and in areas prone to fog and dust conditions.
