The Meteorological Department of Kuwait's Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) forecasts that horizontal visibility will drop sharply to below one kilometer and to nil in some areas on Saturday/Sunday night.
Visibility will start improving by 10:00 am Sunday, and decline again next night due to dense fog, said Amira Al-Azemy, head of the DGCA's weather forecasts division.
Kuwait has come under a high pressure associated with a wet mass of air and mild wind, which usually leads to dense fog, she told KUNA.
Al-Azemy noted that the poor weather conditions forced halting the air traffic at Kuwait International Airport between 6:50 and 8:50 am. Saturday.
Meanwhile, a thick fog engulfed Kuwait on Saturday ebbing visibility and drenching the ground including roads with moisture. Visibility has ebbed thus people namely motorists ought to be quite cautious.
