Everyone knows it gets super hot mid-day with temperatures ranging from high 40’s to sometimes hitting 50 degrees celsius! This means that the UV rays are INTENSE and the sun is shining bright on the Kingdom. This resident took to the streets to do a little experiment of cooking eggs under the sun, which was a shocking success! The internet was absolutely in awe of the cooked egg that he was seen eating right off the platform.

4. If you wear glasses then you know this struggle

The summer humidity gets real this time around and if you’re wearing glasses then you’ve definitely experienced the foggy lenses. This usually happens when someone steps out of a cooled environment, into the humid outdoors.

3. It’s best to eat your ice cream outside in Saudi

@karina_rybko I think it’s not the best idea to eat ice cream outside when it’s 47•c 😅🇸🇦 #ksa#riyadh ♬ Makeba (Ian Asher Remix) – Jain & Ian Asher

If you’re heading to the Baqala then make sure you run into your car ASAP because the heat will melt that thing right down.

2. Being drenched in water is the key to beating the heat

If you’re visiting the Kingdom during summer for Umrah or even just tourism purposes, then keep a water bottle handy because you won’t just be drinking it but also drenching yourself in it. This visitor was seen doing exactly that in Madinah when it was 42 degrees celsius.

1. You definitely won’t need a hairdryer in the summer

When you take a shower then drying your hair will definitely not be an issue here because as soon as you step outside, give it 5 mins, you’ll be good to go!
