Tuesday: Active southeasterly winds increase the feeling of coldness, ahead of a state of atmospheric instability that begins on Wednesday
Arab Weather - The latest weather maps issued this evening, Monday 1-20-2025, indicate that the Kingdom will be affected during the daylight hours of tomorrow, Tuesday, by an overlap between the Siberian high and an extension of the so-called Red Sea depression, which leads to a remarkable activity in the speed of the southeast winds that increase the feeling of coldness in addition to the fact that it may stir up dust and sand in desert areas.
Overall, temperatures will be a few degrees warmer than average on Tuesday, and the weather will be relatively cold in general in all regions, while the weather will be less cold in the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba.
As night falls, active southeasterly winds are expected to continue, which will continue to increase the feeling of coldness, in addition to causing dust storms, especially in desert areas.
The Red Sea depression extends on Wednesday and Thursday, accompanied by the emergence of unstable weather conditions.
The latest computer simulation results in "Arab Weather" indicate that the Kingdom will be affected by the so-called extension of the Red Sea depression from the south, coinciding with the advance of a low pressure system in the upper layers of the atmosphere, which will lead to the emergence of a state of atmospheric instability that will be random and will begin on Wednesday.
The weather on Wednesday morning will be cold and stable with the appearance of medium and high clouds, and gradually during the afternoon and evening hours there will be a chance for scattered, random rain that may be accompanied by thunder.
The weather conditions will remain unstable on Thursday, but will be accompanied by a drop in temperatures. The weather will be generally relatively cold and changeable between partly cloudy and cloudy, with a chance of showers, God willing, in the north and center of the Kingdom, which may be accompanied by thunder at times.
Much needed rain
Weather maps in "Arab Weather" indicate that this state of atmospheric instability at the end of this week, and despite it being a secondary state and not a major winter state, the forecasts indicate that there is a good chance that some areas will receive amounts of rain that the rainy season is in dire need of, as the level of the rainy season has currently reached the critical stage.
This rainfall, although less than the usual normal situation, helps keep the soil moist and thus benefits the agricultural sector, which is considered the most affected by this prevailing climate pattern.
Until the time of preparing this report, the weather maps in "Arab Weather" do not indicate that the atmosphere has recovered to what it usually is in the winter, which makes most of the conditions we are affected by seem like they are in the spring or fall.
O God, send us rain and do not make us among the despairing.
