During the month of September, residents can expect rain and thunder in some parts of the country, as per a forecast by the National Centre of Meteorology. This is a result of expected cumulonimbus cloud formation in eastern areas. This may also extend to internal regions, causing rain at different intensities.
There is also a forecast of fresh winds, sometimes blowing with dust, causing poor visibility. This is an effect of the Indian monsoon depression gradually weakening, and the desert thermal lows over the Arabian Peninsula.
Humidity is set to rise in comparison to the month of August, especially during the second half of the month. The chance of fog and mist formation will increase in some parts of the country, with relative humidity resting at 49 per cent.
The end of peak summer was marked by the Suhail star's spotting on August 24, also known as the 'Star of Yemen'.
After the star is spotted, there is a period of 40 days when the weather transitions between peak heat and cooler temperatures. This period is also known as 'Sufriya'.
Around mid-October, the weather is expected to gradually stabilise. This is also known as the 'Wasm' period.
Cool winter season will begin 100 days after the rise of the Suhail star.
