Searing heat baked the eastern Arabian Peninsula from the United
Arab Emirates to northern Oman Thursday. Highs above 100 degrees were
widespread. In Sohar, Oman, the 108-degree high was almost 25 degrees
above average. Nearby, Muscat surged to 106 degrees far surpassing the
mean high for the date which is near 90. Moreover, the temperature
dipped only to 89 degrees by Friday morning whereas an average day in
early April would have a low in the lower 70s.
