Weather Update | Low pressure area monitored around Cyprus, thunderstorms expected in parts of the Levant late today

Arab Weather - The latest satellite images from the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate the formation of a low-pressure area around the island of Cyprus, following the rush of a relatively cold and humid air mass towards the eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea, where an area of low surface pressure has formed, resulting in unstable weather conditions accompanied by heavy to very heavy rains in southern Turkey and Cyprus, and the rains are accompanied by strong thunderstorms and hail showers, which increases the risk of floods and rising water levels.

The effects of the relatively cold air mass reach the Levant and Egypt, and heavy thunderstorms on the coasts of Syria and Lebanon tonight.

The effects of the relatively cold air mass extend to Syria and Lebanon during the evening and night hours of Sunday/Monday, as temperatures drop and unstable weather conditions prevail, resulting in the proliferation of cumulonimbus clouds, and heavy thunderstorms falling, especially in coastal and mountainous areas.

As for Palestine and Jordan, God willing, temperatures are expected to continue to drop, and there is a chance for scattered showers of rain in northern and central Palestine and northern Jordan, which may be accompanied by heavy thunderstorms in some geographical areas in the north of the Kingdom, especially the northern Jordan Valley and western Irbid, with the possibility of some scattered rain extending towards parts of the south of the Kingdom.

And God knows best.
