Climate overview
Temperature
The coolest monthly mean is in January at 17.9 °C, while the warmest is in July at 35.7 °C. These figures describe average temperatures for each month, not daytime highs, so they cannot show how warm a particular afternoon may feel. The unweighted mean across monthly means is 27.8 °C; it summarizes the calendar-month averages without weighting months by their number of days.
Rain
The highest monthly mean daily rainfall is January at 0.60 mm/day, and the lowest is June / August / September at 0.00 mm/day. The lowest figure is a rounded zero, which should not be read as proof that rain cannot occur. The unweighted mean of the monthly daily-rainfall means is 0.18 mm/day. These are daily averages rather than monthly totals, and they do not reveal how often rain falls or whether a particular day will be wet.
Sunshine
Mean daily sunshine reaches its highest supplied monthly value in June at 12.41 hours/day, and its lowest in December at 9.02 hours/day. The unweighted mean across the monthly sunshine averages is 10.60 hours/day per day.

Best Travel Time Guide for Doha, Qatar: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights
For visitors prioritising cooler monthly averages, January is the relevant option in this comparison, with a mean temperature of 17.9 °C; it is not a promise of a particular daytime temperature. If lower average rainfall is the priority, June / August / September has a rounded mean daily rainfall of 0.00 mm/day, but that average does not guarantee dry days or indicate rain frequency. Prepare for the possibility of rain when visiting in January, the month with the highest mean daily rainfall at 0.60 mm/day; the average alone cannot predict whether it will rain during your stay. For outdoor sightseeing planned around sunshine, June has the highest mean daily sunshine duration at 12.41 hours/day, while December has the lowest at 9.02 hours/day. These are useful planning comparisons, not guarantees of clear skies or measures of day length, so no single month is a universal best time to visit.
