August weather forecast
Qatar

August in Qatar is part of the summer season, characterized by persistently high temperatures. During this month, temperatures typically range from 34°C (93.2°F) to 45°C (113°F) during the day, a slightly marginal drop from July's peak readings.

July typically records the highest temperatures of the year, while September sees a modest reduction in heat. However, the difference between these months is not drastic, and the entire period is characterized by extreme temperatures.

Rainfall in August is essentially non-existent, similar to other summer months in Qatar. The country's desert climate results in a dry August, with clear, sunny skies dominating and virtually no precipitation. Cloud cover or overcast conditions are rare during this month.

In Doha, Qatar's capital city, the weather pattern mirrors the national trend. Temperatures in August can range from 34°C (93.2°F) to 45°C (113°F). The coastal location of Doha can lead to higher humidity levels, which can compound the intense heat during the day. As such, August is considered an off-peak period for tourism in Doha due to the extreme temperatures and lack of rainfall, making outdoor activities less appealing.
