Meteorology Department Warns of Poor Visibility, Thundery Rain

Doha: The Department of Meteorology has issued a warning of poor horizontal visibility at most places at first in inshore areas, in addition to expected thundery rain at first associated with strong wind and high sea offshore.

According to Qatar News Agency, the Department's daily weather report indicates that inshore conditions until 6:00 pm on Monday will be misty to foggy at most places at first, transitioning to moderate temperatures during the daytime with scattered clouds to partly cloudy skies. There is also a chance of scattered rain.

Offshore, the weather will present scattered clouds to partly cloudy skies with a potential for scattered rain, which may be thundery at first. Winds inland will range from northwesterly to northeasterly at 03 to 13 KT, while offshore winds will vary from 05 to 15 KT, with gusts reaching 25 KT during thundery rain.

The sea state inshore is expected to range from 1 to 4 feet, whereas offshore conditions will vary from 2 to 4 feet, escalating to 8 feet during thundery rain. Visibility inshore is projected to be between 4 and 9 km, potentially dropping to 2 km or less at most places initially. Offshore visibility is expected to range from 5 to 9 km, decreasing to 3 km or less during thundery rain.
