Arab Weather - The cold wave will deepen to include most regions of the Kingdom by the end of this week, with the exception of the western regions, where temperatures will drop by about 6-4 degrees Celsius below their normal rates in Riyadh and the Eastern Region. Colder than usual weather prevails in these regions, and may turn very cold at night and early morning hours with the possibility of frost forming in large parts of the north of the Kingdom, where minimum temperatures reach below zero degrees Celsius for about 2 to 3 degrees Celsius, and freezing occurs in places where water collects and pools of water.

The western regions are affected by the morning winds, and there is also noticeable wind activity in the Arabian Gulf.

As for the western regions, especially the coastal parts, it is expected that they will remain away from the effects of the cold air mass, as they will be affected by warm easterly winds that will lead to a rise in temperatures on the coastal strip, including the city of Jeddah, as the weather tends to be hot, and the speed will be active, accompanied by strong gusts that may stir up dust and dirt and lead to a decrease in horizontal visibility.

As for the Arabian Gulf and the surrounding coasts, they are affected by cold, dry, and active winds that significantly increase the feeling of coldness. The sea in the Arabian Gulf becomes turbulent, with waves reaching a depth of more than one and a half to two meters. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid sailing in small boats, especially in the depths of the Arabian Gulf.

And God knows best.
