John - you don't need full on winter gear. Just a couple of jumpers, trousers (of course), a medium coat, and maybe a scarf.

In 2006 it was a lovely ...In 2006 it was a lovely winter. It was dark, cloudy and rained for almost every day in December. We got trapped in Doha on new years eve and were unable to get to Dukhan such was the torrential rain. It rained on and off until April and then warmed up. The coldest night was 5C but generally 7C. I remember it rained when my parents were here and that was April 2007.
This last winter wasn't very cold at all, only a few days of rain and never really got below 10C at night.
I love winters here, they are so cosy. On the down side, houses are not built for winter so prepare to freeze and get leaks driping everywhere. The roads don't drain very well so very wet.

Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood.

Yes, you'll definitely want ...Yes, you'll definitely want a heater cos the build quality of the houses/apartments is atrocious. The cold air and wind will whistle through the poorly sealed windows and ill-fitting doors.
JJ - I don't know which is worse, being trapped in Doha or going back to Dukhan ;-)
