The UAE has entered the Suhail season, but persistent fog is preventing the famous Suhail star from being visible.

The rising of the Suhail star on August 24 marks the end of the extreme summer heat and the beginning of cooler weather in the Arabian Peninsula. This astronomical event is highly anticipated in the Arab world.

Despite its annual rise, the Suhail Star remains hidden from view in the UAE due to high humidity and fog, preventing its sighting. While the star's appearance typically signals the end of summer, atmospheric conditions are obscuring it.

Dubai has experienced rainfall amidst intense summer heat, occurring days before the traditional rising of the Suhail star, which typically signals a change in season.

Stargazers in Oman are observing the annual appearance of the Suhail star (Canopus) on the southeastern horizon, which traditionally heralds seasonal changes in the region.

The appearance of the Suhail star marks the traditional end of summer in the UAE, though forecasts suggest 'Sweat-tember' and 'Hot-tober' will bring continued high temperatures.
