Northwesterly winds are likely to affect the country by tomorrow and this will lead to a dip in temperature, the Qatar Met department has said.
There is also a chance of light rain in the northern parts of the country tomorrow as cloudy conditions will intensify from the middle of the week, according to the weather office, Gulf Times reported.
The mercury level has been rising around Qatar over the past few days, crossing 30C in some places. However, that may change as the Met department yesterday tweeted that northwesterly winds are expected to affect the country by tomorrow afternoon, “causing rising dust, a drop in temperature by 3-5C compared to the previous days and high waves exceeding 8ft”.
Today’s detailed forecast says strong winds and high seas are expected in offshore areas towards the north.
