Weather of Arabia - Weather forecasters at the Arab Regional Weather Center said that the received weather maps are now indicating the occurrence of sharp and striking weather fluctuations in the airspace of Iraq during the current week, as hot and rainy weather is expected to prevail at the same time, with serious warnings of the danger of torrential rains, especially in northern regions of the country.

In the details, Iraq is increasingly affected by the relatively hot air mass to hot on Sunday, where more rises in temperatures occur, and the weather is warm in the northern regions, tending to heat at noon and afternoon, and relatively hot to hot in the rest of the regions during daylight hours, with maximum temperatures touching midday. The thirties Celsius in the capital, Baghdad, and quantities of clouds spread at medium and high altitudes over many areas.

During the Sunday/Monday night hours, there is a significant and additional rise in the night temperatures, so that the weather becomes remarkably warm in most regions, tending to moderate the late night and early morning hours, especially in the northern and western regions.

More hot air currents flowed towards Iraq on Monday, and a state of air instability in some areas

The weather forecast staff at the Arab Weather Center expects that the flow of hot air currents towards Iraq will increase on Monday, as another noticeable rise will occur in the measured temperatures, thus being higher than their rates for this time of the year by about 12-14 degrees Celsius, and the weather will be relatively hot in the regions Northern and western, and hot in the rest of the regions, with maximum temperatures approaching the end of the 30s Celsius in the center and south of the country.

A state of atmospheric instability gradually arises during the daytime hours, especially in the afternoon, in some northern and western regions, where amounts of clouds appear at different altitudes, and the opportunity is ripe for thunderstorms of rain to fall on parts of those areas, sometimes thunderstorms and heavy rains in some narrow geographical ranges. It is not like others, and at the same time it is accompanied by great activity on the speed of dust-raising surface winds within the framework of the effect of thunderclouds.

A strong state of atmospheric instability on Tuesday/Wednesday night and Wednesday

The weather forecast staff closely monitors the impact of Iraq, with the hours of Tuesday/Wednesday night and Wednesday, by a state that is believed to be strong atmospheric instability, according to the preliminary data processed, and it is caused by the rush of a cold air mass in the various layers of the atmosphere coming through the Levant and accompanying an air depression in conjunction with the continued flow of air. Warm air currents in the layers of the atmosphere near the Earth's surface.

This situation leads to the formation of thick thunderstorm clouds that are accompanied by heavy rains over large areas of Iraq, including the capital, Baghdad, and the northern regions. And the neighborhoods, too, and the risk of torrential rains in the northern regions increases due to the mountainous nature that these areas acquire.

God knows.
