Weather and Climate in Qatar

The best time to visit is November-March, when temperatures are at their mildest. Humidity, however, is very high along the coast. October and April are tolerable but very hot. Don't even think about going July-September, when the country is hottest, though the humidity lessens a bit then. A dust-laden wind, the shamal, blows March-August. In spring, the desert wildflowers bloom. Sandstorms can occur throughout the year, although they are most common in the spring. Most rain falls during the winter months in sudden, short but heavy cloudbursts. Take a sweater for evenings year-round.

Required clothing: Lightweight cottons and linens are worn during summer months, with warm clothes for cooler evenings and during the winter. Rainwear is advisable during winter.
