Abu Dhabi: Wissam Shawky at a time when he believes that winter has gone and that warmth has come, people surprised the phenomenon of “the old woman” or “the days of the old man” that begins on February 25 and will continue until March 4, and may extend to March 10. This phenomenon is characterized by short cold waves at the end of the cold season, after some think that the winter has ended, to surprise them again without warning, as this stage is often preceded by a temporary rise in temperature, which is a “deceptive” rise that raises the belief of some that the separation is Winter has passed, to return the cold forcefully accompanied by cold winds. These days are also called “the cold of the chawar” among the people of agriculture, where “the chawal” refers to one of the stars of Scorpio, and some people know it.
