Arab Weather - The latest computer modeling results indicate that Mecca and Medina will continue to experience stable weather over the coming days, but it will also be extremely hot and exhausting, especially for pilgrims.

Temperatures approaching the mid-forties Celsius in Mecca and Medina.

In detail, Makkah and Madinah are expected to record temperatures between 42 and 43 degrees Celsius on Sunday, meaning hot to extremely hot weather will prevail, especially during the noon and afternoon hours, with temperatures dropping to around 30 degrees Celsius at night.

Indications of further rise in temperature starting Monday

Meteorologists expect temperatures in Makkah and Madinah to rise further starting Monday, reaching the mid-forties Celsius, and possibly slightly higher in some areas. This means that the weather will be generally hot and stressful for pilgrims to the Holy House of God.

Recommendations:

  • Avoid direct and prolonged exposure to sunlight, especially during the afternoon and evening hours.
  • Make sure to drink enough water to replace the fluids your body loses due to sweating.
  • Never leave children inside vehicles, no matter how short the stop.
  • Avoid placing flammable materials inside vehicles to avoid the risk of fire.
