Yes, you read that right. You've probably felt it too when you've stepped outside.

We hate to break it to you, but that time of year you hate the most is now upon us. Don't worry, you're not the only one. With schools now finishing, Ramadan almost over and the midday break now in place for workers, it's official: Dubai's summer has arrived.
How do we know this? Besides stepping outside and feeling like our shoes are melting, the UAE's National Center of Meterology & Seismology recorded the highest temperature yet of 2017 this week.
It reached 50.5°C in Mezaira, near Liwa in Abu Dhabi on Saturday.

Sure, that's a little far away from the coastal cities of Dubai, and Abu Dhabi, but it doesn't feel any less uncomfortable knowing it peaked at that temperature.

And to top it all off, the humidity reached an uncomfortable 62% in Dubai.

Which means, every time we step outside, this happens...
