How hot is it in Dubai? Jul 18, 2009
Today was the second day in a row of 112 degrees in this desert. Absolutely aweful!!!!!!!!! But with only 10% humidity though. I remember July/August was THE WORST time in Dubai with temps over 110 degrees and over 70% humidty. That makes it a 1000 times worse than here.

Hi K-Dog, it's only been around the 100 so far (40 C.). And sometimes humid as you say. That's what makes you feel exhausted and sticky. Still, I'd take 40 degs and 65 pct over Hong Kong's normal summer 30 degs and 80-90 pct! :D

You are assuming too much again... :P

As her post was after mine and I live in the desert too I assumed the lass was talking to me. I could have been wrong but the point is moot!

She actually mentioned neither of our posts....dust those 'cake' crumbs from your shirt (and put them in an envelope with my address on please....) :D ;)

25 to 35 degrees at max. during summer. Its a temperature that just gets me started. One of the reasons I'm leaving this place soon.

Coming your way Sage. The humidity might be annoying though. ;)

Nothing I can't handle. Bring it on.

Yea but the rice has this pleasant aroma. This cooker when opened comes with the stench and saline taste of human sweat! :lol:
Ewww, what a thought!

You two are talking rubbish! :P

It's not that steamy in Dubai except maybe some evenings, and the air in Dubai doesn't taste and smell of sweat except in labour camps, lifts and taxis....

Get a grip people!!! :D :D

Oh man ,it's so hot in Dubai !!
So hot that I think I might fry !!
I'm dripping with sweat ,
Very humid ? You bet !!
I just wish that this heat was bone dry !!

Oh man , it's so hot in this land
Turn the heat down and it would be grand !!
It isn't much fun,
When the temp tops a ton !
But it's moisture I really can't stand!!

Oh man , it's so hot in Oman,
Where can I buy a good fan ?
It's topping one twenty!!
I tell you that's PLENTY!!
Too hot to lie down for a tan !!

Oh man, it's so hot in Bahrain ,
I'd love to see cloud and some rain,
When I'm home in UK,
I'll say rain is OK ,
Cos this heat is just doing my brain !!

Hey guys,

what do you think is more unbearable:

30-35 degree (celsius) and 90-95% humidity (like in e.g. Singapore) OR
40-45 degree (celsius) and max. 65% humidity (like in Dubai)?
