It is not surprising that the Jazan region is exposed to such storms, as it is classified as the region in the Arab world most exposed to lightning flashes and lightning strikes, at a rate of 55 flashes per square kilometer annually, according to what “A. Abdullah Al-Misnad” stated, who stressed that this percentage exceeds all countries. The European continent and North Africa.

The Jazan region is also classified as the region with the highest registration of deaths due to lightning and lightning strikes, especially during the summer months, especially the month of August. It may even be the highest in the Arab world after the mountains of Yemen.

Although such storms are considered rare in general, they recur from year to year in the skies of the Jazan region, due to its high altitude, terrain, and direct exposure during the month of August to the flow of air currents saturated with tropical moisture.
