Yes thats true, the normal temperature in summers is normally above 50˚C in Saudi Arabia but PK777 the air-conditioning system there is so powerful that you can't even realize that hot temperature unless you step out of your home or apartment.

I was in Saudi Arabia last summer and believe you me I literally had to take blanket on when sleeping despite of that high temperature outside due to powerful air conditioning system.
