Dubai is not far from Damman.  I once heard a weather report from Damman:  105F and fog.  If you try to breathe in such conditions, water from the fog will condense in your lungs, which are a cool surface compared to the atmosphere.  In the old days this is when they would pack up their tents and steal away into the interior, where at least it was much less humid.  Without air conditioning it can be a very unhealthy climate at certain times of the year.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."
