Polar winds rush towards the central Mediterranean and weather patterns remain the same for the rest of the month
Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that the latest readings from what is called computer simulation indicate the dominance of specific weather patterns over the northern hemisphere during the remainder of the month, which are the same ones that have prevailed for a long time, as advanced computer simulations show the continued concentration of cold waves towards southern Europe and the central Mediterranean.
Polar winds are expected to sweep towards southern Europe and the central Mediterranean starting today.
In detail, a polar air mass of very cold origin is rushing towards the central Mediterranean and North Africa, and as a result a deep low pressure system is formed, centered over the Ionian Sea, accompanied by very heavy rainfall in southern Europe and North Africa, resulting in strong winds with gusts reaching about 120 km/h and causing new disturbances in the waves, with the wave height reaching about 6 meters in the western part of the Mediterranean.
Heavy snowfall on European highlands and very heavy rain in low-lying areas
Weather experts at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that the latest advanced computer outputs show an increase in the flow of cold winds across the various layers of the atmosphere. Today, the low pressure system is developing into a rainstorm over southern Europe, causing an increase in the severity of weather disturbances, heavy rains accompanied by thunderstorms at times, and large hail falling in several countries in central and southern Europe, including the Balkan countries, which increases the risk of torrents and floods.
Snowfall to increase in European Alps in the coming days
As temperatures drop across the various layers of the atmosphere, heavy snow falls on many areas, especially the mountainous highlands, including the highlands of Italy and the Balkan countries, and the density of the falling snow increases, which will lead to snow thicknesses ranging between one and two meters above some towering peaks.
The Azores High continues to remain in southwest Europe, resulting in a new surge of very cold air mass.
Medium-term readings until the end of the month indicate that the Azores high will continue to remain over southwestern Europe, resulting in a new surge of very cold air mass towards southern Europe and North Africa. It may be colder than its predecessor, resulting in the formation of a new, deep low pressure system that will bring strong winds to southern Europe and the Mediterranean. Rain will continue to fall on low-lying areas, while heavy snow will fall on high mountain heights.
God knows best.
