Dubai climate: monthly averages

Everything below is collected in one spot so you do not have to cross-check Dubai climate: monthly averages by hand. The gap between Jan and Aug is 15.3 C here: 20.1 C against 35.4 C. Precipitation peaks in Jan (0.55 mm/day) and bottoms out in Jul (0.03 mm/day), so a 18.3x difference between the two. Taken together that is roughly 84 mm of rain a year for the grid cell. Values come from a public open API; a successful result is cached so a later outage never blanks the page. Exact monthly values are in the table; links below cover adjacent locations and years.

What the Dubai climate table shows

Values are multi-decadal climatological averages for the 25.0772, 55.3093 grid cell, not a single year. Rain is the daily mean, so a value of 2.00 mm/day is about 60 mm across a 30-day month. Averages smooth over extremes, so use them for planning rather than for what to pack for next Tuesday.

Frequently asked questions

Why do the numbers differ from a weather app?

An app shows one location on one day. These are long-run averages, so they smooth out single hot or cold spells.

How much rain is 0.55 mm/day in a month?

Rain is recorded as a daily mean, so 0.55 mm/day is roughly 17 mm across a 30-day month.
