August marked the end of the Al Mirzam period — the hottest period of summer in the region, when dry winds and scorching sun test the strength of even seasoned sailors
In Abu Dhabi, the temperature reached +44 °C, in Dubai — +43 °C.
📍 For the crews, this means: a little relief is ahead — the heat will begin to subside, more clouds will appear, and the humidity will gradually return.
But it’s too early to relax: work on deck still needs to be done with maximum protection from the sun and heatstroke
💬 A nautical omen says: “Al Mirzam is rising — expect a change in the weather”
