Doha, Qatar: Heavy rains and thunderstorms are expected to occur in Qatar on Thursday and Friday, March 26 to 27, 2026.

Qatar Meteorology Department urged the public to take caution during this period due to the possibility of strong downdrafts, reduced horizontal visibility in open areas, and a possibility of hail. 

According to the latest weather report, the country is affected by a state of instability due to a deepening surface low-pressure system that leads to an increase in cloud cover.

Due to this, weather conditions will be partly cloudy to cloudy on Thursday and Friday, March 26 to 27, 2026. 

"Rain intensity will range from moderate to heavy," said Qatar Meteorology. 

The Department urged the public to take caution due to the possibility of strong downdrafts, reduced horizontal visibility in open areas, and a possibility for hail.
