Kuwait: Unstable weather conditions on Friday evening, intensifying at dawn and Saturday morning, accompanied by thunderstorms and hail, and a warning of rising water levels.
Arab Weather - Weather maps at the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that Kuwait will be affected by a state of atmospheric instability that will gradually begin on Friday and intensify during the dawn and morning hours of Saturday, becoming strongly influential in some areas when a cold air front passes. Thunderstorms will fall on many areas and will be heavy, which requires attention to the risks of flash floods and rising water levels in many cities and neighborhoods.
Hot currents will affect the country on Friday, ahead of a rain front crossing at dawn on Saturday.
In detail, the weather on Friday is expected to be relatively hot to hot and dusty to varying degrees due to active southwesterly winds. Unstable weather conditions will gradually develop during the day, with clouds multiplying at various altitudes, and there will be a chance of thunderstorms in scattered areas of Kuwait.
A state of atmospheric instability will affect Kuwait starting Saturday morning.
During the early hours of Saturday morning, a cold air front will cross Kuwait, coinciding with warm and humid air currents in the atmosphere close to the Earth's surface. This creates a strong state of atmospheric instability and large amounts of thick cumulus clouds will multiply, causing heavy thunderstorms to fall, starting from the western regions and extending with the passage of the cold air front towards the rest of the regions, including coastal cities and the capital, Kuwait City. The rain will be accompanied by strong thunderstorms and heavy hail showers in some geographical areas.
These weather conditions require extreme caution due to the risk of flash floods and rising water levels in many areas, including neighborhoods of the Kuwaiti capital.
Serious and important recommendations from Arab Weather during this period of atmospheric instability:
- Be aware and fully prepared for the risks of flash floods, especially in the western regions, and the occurrence of water pools and rising water levels in many areas.
- Beware of strong downward winds during thunderstorms.
- Take shelter inside buildings when lightning strikes.
And God knows best.
