Wind shear in Abu Dhabi

Good day,
Yesterday i Was landing with an C130 in Abu Dhabi and In final at 2000ft full established on ILS there Was a strong Wind shear. I needed Max continuous power to recover, i lost 100 ft and 15 kts but i Was at minimum wheigt. I reported to the TWR.
Have you ever had this experience with no thurderstom or CB in the vicinity? It happened coming out of a sort of bubble of sand, could il be on indication of probable Wind shear??!?
Thanks in advance
