Weather

While temperatures can cook during Kuwait summers with days often topping 50°C (122°F) in August, the humidity inland is not so bad. On the coast you trade cooler temperatures for higher humidity. The winter months are often pleasant, featuring some of the region's coolest weather, with daytime temperatures hovering around 18°C (64°F) and nights being quite chilly but never literally freezing. The occasional annoying sandstorm occurs throughout the year but is particularly common in spring.
