Climate

Al-Bukayriyah is part of the climatic conditions in which we find in the Najd region, which is the desert climate that is known to be very hot in summer and very cold in winter. What distinguishes Al-Bukayriyah is that the climate during the summer is less hot compared to the climate of Najd, and this is due to the effect of the farms and orchards surrounding Al-Bukayriyah, as it contributes to tempering the temperatures in the summer, especially since many farms are located in the heart of Al-Bukayriyah and its near ends, which softens the temperatures due to moisture as The density of vegetation causes moderate temperatures in summer. Also, rain falls on Al Bukayriyah in winter due to the western winds.
