Qatar Calendar House announced that Qatar has officially entered the Jamrat al-Qais season as of today. Al-Ansari, Executive Director, told Qatar News Agency (QNA) that the season will last for 39 days. Known for its intense heat, temperatures often reach 50°C in some parts of the Arabian Peninsula during this period.
Al Bawarih is bracing for a dry and scorching wind as the northwesterly winds subside. Humidity levels are also expected to rise across the Arabian Gulf.
Despite the scorching heat, the season is ideal for agriculture, especially for the date palm harvest. Al-Ansari noted that as daylight hours begin to shorten, nights become longer during this period. The Jamrat al-Qais season will end with the arrival of the Suhail star on August 24, 2025.
