I feel cheated

One of the things I enjoyed moving here from Brunei, was experiencing some sort of seasonal changes throughout the year. It's not much, weather here is "warm", "hot" or "crazy hot"; but still, there is normally a significant difference between our UAE summers and winters.

This winter I have felt rather cheated.
Normally this time of the year, January being the coldest month here, we should be seeing temperatures as low as 14-16 degrees during the school run in the morning. This morning while taking Lucas to rugby practice, it was already 20 degrees at 6.15 am (yes, THAT early!).
And in the afternoons, the temperatures have been getting up close to 30 degrees some days, whereas previous years a winter day here in the sandpit would mean around more comfortable 25 degrees at a maximum.

I hate to think when the proper summer temperatures will return? Already in April this year maybe? These climate changes are really scaring me.
