Climatology (ERA5)
This page presents Kuwait's climate context for the current climatology, 1991-2020 and historical record from 1950-2023. Data is derived from ERA5 reanalysis products. Information should be used to build a strong understanding of current climate conditions in order to appreciate future climate scenarios and projected change. ERA5 reanalysis data is produced at daily scale and a wide range of climate indicators, including threshold-based indicators are made available. Data can be analyzed through geo-spatial variation, the seasonal cycle, a time series or through the stripes graph intended to increase understanding of historical variability over the historical record. Analysis is available for both annual and seasonal data. Data presentation defaults to national-scale aggregation, however sub-national data aggregations can be accessed by selecting within a country, on a sub-national unit.
ERA5 data produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). Data is presented at 0.25º x 0.25º (25km x 25km) resolution. All data is accessible in CCKP's Data Download.
