A user on Twitter commented that Tabouk area is also witnessing extreme cold.

Al Ain has been experiencing a cold wave, with Raknah area recording the sub-zero temperatures on Sunday. After recording -2 degrees Celsius, icicles formed near some shrubs in the area. 

The weather expert from the National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) had told Khaleej Times about the sudden dip in the climate over the past few days. "Cold air mass moving from east and northeast is approaching our country, over the desert. Cold waves reaching Al Ain has led to all stations recording low temperatures. “The temperature dropped to below zero in Raknah because the area is like a wadi (valley). The air in this area gets cooler than any other area. There is cold wind, too. So, Raknah gets colder than any other place.” 

According to the NCM, parts of the country recorded near-freezing temperatures on Sunday
