People living in Qatar aren’t exactly used to weather changes, let alone one that causes the temperature to drop as low as 10 degrees. So it’s safe to say the cold caught most people off guard these past few days.

While some people took advantage of the cool weather by spending their night at the corniche and other outdoor destinations, others didn’t find the cold weather very delightful as it came to them as a great surprise.

Rumours also surfaced about “snow” possibly falling on the outskirts of Doha, however they was all based on speculation and unverifiable images, therefore unlikely to be true.
