Although temperatures will not drop immediately, nighttime temperatures will begin to gradually decrease, indicating the beginning of a change in the weather.
In a previous statement to the Khaleej Times, Ibrahim Al Jarwan, Chairman of the Emirates Astronomy Society, said that the star Suhail will be visible at dawn starting from August 24.
Sophria: A transitional period lasting about 40 days after the appearance of the star Suhail, characterized by a severe drop in temperatures.
Tag: By mid-October, the weather gradually begins to stabilize.
Winter: The cold season begins about 100 days after the appearance of the star Suhail.
The star Suhail is also known as the "Star of Yemen", and has special significance in Arab tradition, as its appearance is linked to the "Durur" calendar, which divides the year into distinct phases, each of which lasts 100 days.
