Nice winter weather
Hi, browsing the internet today I noted Doha's temps today as follows:
HI 65°F | LO 51°F
I am a Canadian, from Calgary, and trying to decide if I'll like the weather in Doha (looking to join the expat pop). I mean, it's cold as ice here from December to March, but April through October are quite pleasant. Even in winters, it does not snow much here as we're an "arid" climate.
As residents of Doha, for what part of year do you get beautiful temps like the above?
If home is not Doha, what do you miss weather-wise about home and what are your pet peeves about the weather in Doha?
isnt it raining heeeeeereeeeeeeeee
rain plus cold wow better get urself a heater from now.

LOL maybe I need to live in Qatar from December to March, then Canada from April through November! How I wish I could find a job like that!
You see, I spent 5 years of my life working in Florida before I moved up to Canada, and it was a lot like what you're describing Qatar to be. So my wife and I loved November - March, but April-October? BRUTAL! High humidity, intense heat, creepy crawlies everywhere (some of the 8-legged variety).
Couple of follow up Qs - is Doha really humid in summers? Are insects a problem in your typical nice company provided accomodation? For example, say you are put up by Qatar Gas (just an example) in their compound in Doha or Al-Khor, they should include a pest service right??

me love the cold weather (cozz it aint too cold)and we get to go dressy dressy in our winter clothes and boots and all . tis good we have 2 seasons here.(i come fr a country with only one season where it is hot and humid all yr round and nothing to look fwd to ssame ol same ol day in and day out)
