Also, the wet clothes suddenly drying part... ever been in Wyoming, Montana, or Idaho in the summer? It gets hot (easily above 90F in some places), but it's also dry. It doesn't take long for wet clothes to dry, even if they're soaked.
I don't know what Fatima's weather is usually like, but even here in muggy NH we get hot but dry days in late summer/early autumn. In fact, early-to-mid October is when our 'Indian Summer' (a stretch (4-7) of warm/hot days following the first frost of the year) occurs.
Finally, there's a meteorological phenomenon known as a 'sun dog' (parhelion, which Last Poet referred to... see: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_dog) that very much aligns with the story.
