Question ❓
■ Describe the conditions experienced in Arabian Desert in Saudi Arabia.
Answer ✔
- The Arabian Desert spreads across 22° of latitude, from 12° to 34° north; although much of the desert lies north of the Tropic of Cancer, it usually is considered a tropical desert.
- Summer heat is intense, reaching temperatures as high as 130 °F (55 °C) in places. In the interior the heat is dry. Coastal regions and some highlands, however, are subject to high summer humidity, with dew and fog at night or early morning.
- Rainfall throughout the desert averages less than 4 inches (100 mm) a year but can range from 0 to 20 inches (0 to 500 mm). Interior skies are usually clear except for intermittent winter rains, spring hazes, or dust storms.
- Torrential rains flood the main drainage basins infrequently. Winters are invigoratingly cool, with the coldest weather occurring at high elevations and in the far north.
- A minimum temperature recorded at Ṭurayf on Tapline (the Trans-Arabian Pipeline) in 1950 was 10 °F (−12 °C) and was accompanied by a significant snowfall and about 1 inch (2.6 cm) of ice on ponds.
- Occasional summer rains in the Rubʿ al-Khali accompany the monsoon winds from the Indian Ocean. Winter rains may occur in the northern Rubʿ al-Khali. The most arid part of the Arabian Desert appears to be on the western margin of the Rubʿ al-Khali, north of Wadi Al-Dawāsir.
