Doha: The recent dust storm and the resultant visibility issues had led everyone to the conclusions that summers would soon be knocking on our doors. Almost confirming this is the recent weather update from Qatar Meteorology  Department.

QMD said in a tweet that there will be a noticeable rise in temperature in the coming three days (Fri - Sun) where the maximum is expected to reach the late 20s in the eastern coast and early 30s elsewhere due to southeasterly wind. 

Meanwhile the weather department also said that there will be a rise in humidity tonight leading to favourable conditions for mist and fog formations that will last until early morning hours of tomorrow (Friday). 

The temperature will again return to its normal range on Monday as the northerly wind begins affecting the country.
