I do have some questions:

You mentioned that it got up to 38 (which equates to about 100F for those in the USA). Was that a dry heat (like much of the western and southwestern USA, especially desert areas) or was it humid and uncomfortable (like much of the eastern USA and Canada)?
Having just returned back from Qatar myself about a week or so ago, it is a humid heat unfortunately (though when I was there it was about 33C, but that was like bliss for this Aussie stuck in the PNW).

To the OP Fantastic report. Good to see someone else heading off to Qatar.
