Read the numbers correctly
Climate, not a promise.
These patterns help compare months. They cannot tell you the weather on a specific day of your trip.
Sources, method and limitsHow these numbers are made (what the highs, lows and rain days mean, the sources and the model cell used for Al Muharraq) is explained once on the Al Muharraq year overview and on the Sources, method and limits page.
Manama and Ar Rifā‘ lie in the same rainfall cell, so their rainfall figures are identical to these; some of these places also share the 0.1° temperature cell; for those places, any temperature difference comes only from the elevation adjustment.
