Tabuk's Climate
Tabuk sits in northwest Saudi Arabia on an inland plateau far from the sea, at roughly 750–800 m elevation, giving it a hot, arid desert climate year-round. Summers (June–September) are very hot and dry, typically 35–42°C by day under clear skies and fierce sun with very low humidity, though nights ease off thanks to the continental setting. Winters (December–February) are the standout: mild days of 15–20°C give way to cold nights that can fall to 3–8°C and occasionally near freezing, and this is also the rare window when a little rain arrives.
