Khartoum North's Climate
Khartoum North (Bahri) sits at the confluence of the Blue and White Nile in central Sudan, amid inland desert, and has a harsh hot desert climate. Sunshine is intense almost year-round and the air is very dry. The hottest stretch (April–June) is typically 40–43°C, with some days above 45°C, before a short monsoon rainy season (July–September) brings a few showers and thunderstorms and rising humidity. The cool dry season (December–February) is more bearable, with daytime highs near 30°C and cooler nights. During the dry months, fierce haboob dust storms often sweep across the city.
