Doha Climate

Desert climate, similar to Dubai. Summers (June–September) are intensely hot (37–45°C) with very high humidity. Ground operations slow but flights rarely cancel for heat alone. Dust haze is persistent and occasionally reduces visibility below instrument minimums. Winter (November–March) is pleasant at 15–26°C and represents Qatar Airways' peak operational period.

Rain is rare, fewer than 10 rainy days per year, but the drainage infrastructure means even light rain causes road flooding. Occasional dust storms (shamal) reduce visibility and can ground departures for hours. Spring (March–May) is the most dust-prone season.
