Scorching Summer Season Begins From July 3 In Kuwait

KUWAIT CITY, June 29: The Al-Ajari Scientific Center has announced that the Twaiba season will end on July 3, marking the beginning of the First Gemini season, which will last for 13 days. This period is expected to bring a significant rise in temperatures.

The Center noted that the First Gemini season is considered the hottest part of the year, particularly during the daytime. It extends until July 15, during which the sun begins its shift southward toward the equator.

In addition to soaring temperatures, the season is marked by intense dryness and the blowing of hot winds, which amplify the sun's already scorching heat. This period is also referred to as "Al-Haq'ah" in the solar and lunar calendars.

The Center highlighted that during this season, the sun reaches its peak intensity, with noticeable changes in its movement, tilt, and the return of shadows, especially after being directly overhead during the summer solstice.

This seasonal transition signals the sun's retreat from its northernmost point, marking the return of longer nights and a shift often referred to as “the turning away,” which is closely associated with the onset of extreme summer heat.
