Doha recorded its highest temperature (50.4C) in 40 years on Wednesday.The maximum temperature in Doha yesterday, as given by the Meteorology Department, was 47C. It is joke, the Met. department, needs to recalibrate the Thermometers.

Visper ffs give some serious thought about it. When you work out door all day & your salary is not enough to buy a deodorant then you will know what causes 'bad smell'

Even me, i wonder why they never display the right temperature.

control the horrible conditions in which their slaves work. They say they don't allow them to work when temps rise over 50 degrees.....yet they also control the thermometer reports.....anyone see a conflict of interest here? 10 million slave workers in the Gulf area are being whipped to death by the heat and horrible, unsanitary conditions. No compassion for anyone but themselves....hypocrites, all of 'em.

Visper it is not funny. People working outdoors can die in this weather.

The one which recorded 50.4 also needs to be re-calibrated. I have lived in 50 C but what we have here is much higher.
