Arab Weather - Sinan Khalaf - The latest satellite images and information issued by airports and monitoring stations show that the central and eastern parts of the Kingdom are still affected by a dusty atmosphere that reduces the horizontal visibility.

 

 

The latest readings indicate that the dusty atmosphere is concentrated in the meantime in Al-Ahsa, Wadi Al-Dawasir, in addition to the Riyadh region, but to a lesser extent, as the level of horizontal visibility in Riyadh has decreased to the limits of 5000 m, while Hail records a horizontal vision level of no more than 1000 meters.

 

In the coming hours, it is expected that the wave of dust will gradually move towards the heights of Najran and the southwestern highlands of the Kingdom, and will reduce the horizontal visibility in these areas.
