Jordan | A cold air front on Sunday, behind which a very cold Siberian polar air mass is pushing, and a rare snowfall is expected in the Badia regions.

Arab Weather - The latest output of the numerical weather models processed by the Air Operations Department at the Arab Regional Weather Center indicates the occurrence of important weather fluctuations in Jordan in the coming days, represented by the Kingdom being affected by a new air depression classified as third-degree (medium to high effective) with the crossing of a cold air front on Sunday A very cold Siberian polar air mass is rushing behind it, stationed over Iraq, as of Sunday and for several days, amid expectations of snowfall in areas that rarely witness snow, followed by a wide wave of snow.Details

A cold, highly effective air front crosses the morning and Sunday morning, with very cold Siberian winds rushing behind it

Our weather maps at the Arab Regional Weather Center indicate that the Kingdom will cross from Sunday morning and during daylight hours a cold air front behind which the very cold Siberian polar winds rush, so there is a significant drop in temperatures to be lower than their rates for this time of the year, and the weather becomes Cold to very cold in all regions of the Kingdom, especially in the mountainous heights and the eastern Badia regions.

The cold air front begins to cross during Sunday morning, pushing large amounts of rainy clouds into the Kingdom, and the weather is humid and rainy at intervals in different regions of the Kingdom. The rains are sometimes heavy and accompanied by showers of hail, and it is not excluded that they are in the form of rain mixed with snow over the high mountainous heights.

It is expected, God willing, that the crossing of the cold air front will coincide with the start of the flow of very cold north polar winds to the eastern Badia regions, which will cause rare and accumulated snowfalls on the eastern Badia (Al-Ruwaished, Al-Safawi, the international road connecting with Baghdad, the Jordanian/Iraqi borders, Al-Dafiya and M cats).

The rain coincides with the crossing of low clouds and touching the surface of the earth, forming thick fog.

Showers and snow in the southern regions with the early night hours of Sunday / Monday night

With the early night hours of Sunday/Monday night, the crossing of the cold air front moves to the southern regions, where rain and hail fall on the southern regions, with snow falling on the peaks of the Shara Mountains and the southern Badia regions, in addition to the heights of Karak, and snow opportunities include ( A Tafila, Shoubak, Wadi Musa, Mubarak, Ras Al-Naqab and the villages of Al-Naimat up to the heights of Rum) and random snow showers are not excluded in the rest of the regions.

Arctic Siberian winds, freezing cold on Sunday/Monday night, and a wide wave of ice deepen

The weather forecast staff at the Arab Regional Weather Center is expected to deepen the impact of the very cold Siberian polar air mass and be stationed over Iraq on Sunday/Monday night, which leads to the flow of cold northeastern winds, as temperatures drop sharply and significantly and quickly to become below zero degrees Celsius in Large areas of the Kingdom with midnight Sunday / Monday and dawn Monday, and the roads are still wet, which leads to the formation of a large-scale ice wave, and the formation of ice includes internal and external roads in cities, which poses a real danger when walking on the roads.

It is expected that the influence of the polar winds will extend to the Jordan Valley, including the central and southern Jordan Valley, causing frost and freezing in those areas, which means that there is a real threat to the crops in those areas.

The very cold Siberian polar air mass dominates the kingdom on Monday

It is expected, according to the latest outputs of numerical weather models, that the impact of the very cold Siberian polar air mass will deepen on the Kingdom on Monday, as there is a sharp drop in temperatures to be below rates for this time of the year, where temperatures range between 4 and 6 degrees in most regions of the Kingdom. The weather will be cold to very cold and clear, with snow forming on the roads in the morning, especially those that witnessed snowfall.

The wind is variable direction, light to moderate speed.

More cold Arctic Siberian winds flow towards the kingdom on Monday/Tuesday night and temperatures are very low

The Siberian polar air mass is moving towards the south and covering large areas of the Kingdom and thus pushing freezing cold winds towards all regions of the Kingdom, which will reach its peak on Monday/Tuesday night, as temperatures drop in all regions of the Kingdom to be below zero by approximately 4 degrees Celsius in the Badia regions, while It is between below zero percent in the capital Amman and the major cities.

With the formation of freezing in large areas of the Kingdom, and ice forming in the wet roads.

The impact of the polar winds is expected to extend again, but more severely, to the Jordan Valley areas, including the central and southern Jordan Valley, causing frost and freezing to form in those areas, which means that there is a real threat once again to the crops in those areas.

In light of the expected weather conditions, the Arab Weather Center advises the necessity of:

• Attention to the danger of torrential rains and the flow of valleys in some areas
• Be aware of the danger of falling and accumulating snow in exposed areas
• Attention to the danger of freezing and icing, which poses a danger to driving on the roads and to livestock plants, so it is advised to prepare early for this
• Reducing movement and not driving on roads that witness the formation of ice, especially on Monday morning
• The safe use of heating devices and heavy clothing, especially for the elderly and children.
