Why the weather is changing
This cooling follows the UAE’s seasonal calendar. The Safriya season began on September 6, marking the start of autumn, and follows the rise of the Al Jabha’ constellation, a traditional sign of cooler days ahead.
The Suhail star, which appeared in UAE skies on August 25, was the first signal that the peak summer heat was coming to an end.
Time to enjoy the outdoors again
With evenings now in the low 20s, the new season has truly arrived, bringing the perfect chance to enjoy evening strolls, outdoor dining, beach days and fresh air after months of staying indoors.
