February is considered one of the months of winter, as the Arabian Gulf region remains under the influence of the extension of the Siberian high air mass, accompanied by a cold northern air mass. Temperatures continue to drop in the country in general during this month, although they rise slightly, especially in the second half of the month. In some areas compared to January.
The country is affected by the passage of air depressions coming from the Mediterranean Sea, which lead to instability in weather conditions, as southern winds stir up dust and sand, and rain clouds sometimes multiply.
The prevailing winds during this month are southeasterly in the morning, turning to westerly and northwesterly during the day, while the country is sometimes affected by active northwesterly winds (northern winds).
Relative humidity increases during this month, and there is an opportunity for light and dense fog to form early in the morning, especially in coastal areas.
