Doha, Qatar: The Qatar Meteorology Department (QMD) forecasts a rise in relative humidity levels across Qatar from tonight, Sunday, August 16, until the morning of Tuesday, August 18, 2026.

In a social media post, the department noted that the conditions could be favourable for the formation of mist and fog.

QMD urged residents and motorists to exercise caution, particularly while driving, as the weather conditions could reduce horizontal visibility to less than 2km and, at times, result in near-zero visibility.
