Muscat: Oman Meteorology warns of heavy rainfall over most parts of Oman on Saturday, caused by the air depression.

This comes after a similar alert from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) on Friday.

"The current weather will continue until next Tuesday. Temperatures are expected to drop to between 22 and 28 degrees and will gradually rise after the rain stops," said meteorologist Younis bin Hussein Al Shezawi, in an interview on Oman TV.

The governorates of Dhofar, Musandam, North Al Sharqiyah, South Al Sharqiyah, South Al Batinah, North Al Batinah, Al Dakhiliyah and Muscat are likely to be most affected, added CAA. 

Along valleys, rain could be accompanied by active winds, it further said.
