Arab Weather - The star Suhail is one of the brightest stars in the sky and appears clearly in the southern hemisphere. Its appearance is considered a sign of the end of summer and the beginning of the equinox in many cultures, especially in the Arabian Peninsula. Its appearance in late August is believed to indicate a gradual change in the weather, which makes people wait for it impatiently.

Dr. Abdullah Al-Misnad, former professor of climate at Qassim University and vice president of the Saudi Weather and Climate Society, explained that some people believe that the entry of the star Suhail on August 24 means the end of the heat and the beginning of immediate moderation in the atmosphere. However, Dr. Al-Misnad pointed out that this understanding is inaccurate, stressing that the weather change does not happen suddenly as some people think, such as turning on a cold air conditioner in a hot room.
He added that the first two stars of Suhail, "Al-Taraf" and "Al-Jabha", have a period of about 26 days or more, and the weather during them is often hot with high humidity on the coasts. These weather conditions are called by the ancients "Suhail's ailments". Dr. Al-Masnad confirmed via his account on the "X" platform that the noticeable moderation in temperatures only occurs gradually at the end of September.

Just like you walk into a hot room and then turn on the cold air conditioner.
