Climate
Temperatures are high throughout the year and can reach the mid 40 degrees Celsius in the summer. Although sited well above sea level, Makkah is set low in relation to the surrounding hills and mountains. As a result, it is susceptible to flash floods at certain times of the year, mainly in winter when most of the limited rain falls.
