Monsoon

***** Location: Yemen
***** Season: see below
***** Category: Heaven

*****************************
Explanation

Winds:
The major factors influencing winds is the atmospheric circulation.
In winter the dominant wind is the NE-monsoon,
in summer the SW-monsoon.
The winds in the Tihama (in the mountains it depends on the local topography), blow from october to april from SSE, in summer from NNW.

Especially during summer, when loads of dust are in the air, it is rather uncomfortable and many Tihamis suffer from infected eyes. Dust clouds are blown from the Tihama up to the Highlands, where they even form "clouds" in summer. In the Serrat the dominant factor is the passat, winds that blow according to temperature differences from the mountains to the plains, from the sea to the land, during daytime, the opposite direction during the night. Those winds do have a practical influence on the wellbeing of people (including field experts).
Generally the wind is changing direction in the evening between seven and nine p.m. - as long as there are no clouds. If there is no wind in Tihama during the night, the mosquitos make live a hell to the camper.
