Normally the issues at Petra are with heat - it can exceed 40 degrees, and with the rock and sand all around it can be extremely hot. However, it's getting on towards winter and so the forecast maximum today was 13 degrees which I found to be completely comfortable.
It's two hours each way on the bus to Petra, which is a long time for only spending 3 hours on site, but I think it was worth it. I was only up to walking as far as the Treasury - distance wise it would have been fine but it's a relatively steep downhill walk all the way and although the downhill walk getting there is fine, I was quite sure I'd not make the walk back.
