Arab Weather - Satellite images and the rain radar of the National Center of Meteorology have detected a thunderstorm in the far western regions, accompanied by heavy rain that may lead to a rise in the water level. Locally within the cloud and dust may extend to parts of the northwestern regions.

With convective thunderstorms, the far eastern regions are formed, and it is reported that the chances of thunderclouds forming will continue in the coming hours, accompanied by thunderstorms of rain and the activity of dusty surface winds.

The reason for the formation of thunderstorms today is due to the convergence of the winds coming from the Empty Quarter with the moist winds coming from the Arabian Gulf, coinciding with the presence of rising and moist air currents in the layers of the atmosphere.
