i know it sounds weird but me likey hot weather ... the hotter the better

ditto Corcovado

Yeah but it's the humidity that makes it horrible - blurgh!

Man, usually I don't get out during the day but I took the day off today to prep for my next trip and it was cooking, Arnie and Coco more power to you but the next few months will make Fayz a sad camper who is going to go into hibernation mode.

Also i couldn't believe how much traffic there was, everywhere i went, every road i was on was chock full of cars. Does nobody work during the day

you might feel it's getting warmer in the morning now.
Hot is much better than cold. I like hot weather but not very much, like up to 45 degrees.

I normally just go out for lunch from 1-3pm. it's pretty hot that a few hours a day. zzzzZZZZ Plus heavy traffic jam everywhere.

Yeah, we were tapping the temp gauge a few times when we came out of the foodcourt. It was bloody 45 degrees in JA at 1pm. Will be gladly taking a short summer vacation in a couple of months.

This is actually a 'blip' in the weather system. This is a combination of a high pressure system over Saudi and a low pressure system over Iran. This creates a funnel that is channelling hot winds from the desert into the coastal region. It is also very 'dry' air and the humidity is less than normal. It should revert back to the normal conditions we get at this time of year in a couple of days.

Absolutely agree with you-I can handle humidity, I can handle heat but together NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Funny, I thought desert and bone dry, not humid.

Liban-where did your sense of humour go??

Thought the heat wouldnt come until June? One of my friends in dubai told me that the four seasons here were

1) Janurary
2) Nice summer
3) Hot summer
4) "OMG,my eye balls are melting" summer

Ahh it was much better yesterday and today, a lot cooler!

DK, thanks for that very interesting!

I can suffer the slingshots and arrows of outrageous misfortune! Fear not...I am impregnable to these petty attempts at ribald humour...
I always wanted to be a weatherman on tv...I even have the maps and things up on my bedroom wall and practice daily pointing at little smiley suns and pretty little white fluffy cloud icons!

Is it time for my medicine now doctor? Must I wear the white coat with the straps again?

Those white coats are damn comfy!

They stop you biting your fingernails too!



Knight

I'll pass on the straight jacket- a) because I need my arms for balance and b) 'cos I get my nails done at the nail spa!!

35 C is much better

Its SO nice to be right from time to time! (and know the weather!)



Smug git Knight

U should try for weatherman @ some tv station

Suppose I could, I'm ugly and crap enough!!!



Knight

you need to be "refreshing" (you will get it if you have seen the movie the weatherman) ..

As for seasons in Dubai i would say its two not four:

1) Summer (Nov-Apri)
2) Hell (May-Oct)

The "Duh!" at the end of your post was unwarranted.
