Arab Weather - The latest satellite images show that the tropical depression Asna has been classified as a deep tropical depression, and it is centered northwest of the Arabian Sea. The wind speed around its center is estimated at about 30 knots, with its movement continuing southwestward during the next 24 hours, God willing.

Tropical Cyclone Asna faces high winds that prevent its direct impact on the Sultanate

The specialists at the Arab Weather Center indicated that the tropical state Asna is facing high wind shear (which is the change in the direction and speed of the winds with the rise in the layers of the atmosphere), and this leads to the lack of cohesion of the tropical state and even the separation of its upper center from the lower one, which leads to its gradual weakening and later its disappearance.

They added that it is expected to continue its movement towards the southwest for the rest of today and tomorrow, Monday, along the Omani coasts, gradually fading away. This does not prevent some rain clouds from flowing to some limited governorates from the northeast of the Sultanate towards the north of Al Sharqiyah.

Although the Sultanate is not expected to be directly affected by the tropical storm Asna, the formation of a tropical storm at this time of year in the northern Arabian Sea and its taking this path is considered a rare occurrence in the climate archive.

And God knows best.
