Arab Weather - The latest weather maps indicate that a cold air mass is approaching the eastern Mediterranean basin region starting from next Saturday evening, and it is expected that the first low pressure system this season will form, affecting Syria and Lebanon at the beginning of the week, God willing.

In detail: Starting from Saturday evening, a cold air mass will rush towards the eastern Mediterranean basin coming from southeast Europe, due to the positioning of a high pressure system over central and southern Europe. Given this weather situation, it is expected, God willing, and as a result of the continued rush of cold winds into the waters of the eastern Mediterranean basin, that a low pressure system will form in the early hours of Sunday to the east of the island of Cyprus, accompanied by a cold air mass.

A drop in temperatures and sometimes heavy rain in Syria and Lebanon, especially in the western and coastal regions.

Weather forecasters at "Arab Weather" said that as the low pressure system continues to move eastward, it is expected that the cold air mass accompanying the air break will begin to affect Syria and Lebanon starting Sunday morning, with a clear drop in temperatures, clouds gradually increasing, and rain falling starting from the coastal areas and quickly spreading to the interior during the daylight hours of Sunday.

The cold air mass will deepen on Sunday evening.

The weather maps indicate that the cold air mass will deepen its influence during the afternoon and evening hours of Sunday, with rain continuing to fall intermittently in the coastal and western regions of Syria and Lebanon. The rain will quickly spread to the interior regions, sometimes heavy, and may be accompanied by thunder and hail at times.

Snow is expected on mountains above 2,500 metres above sea level.

The cold air mass is expected to be accompanied by a significant drop in temperatures, falling below zero degrees Celsius in the high mountainous areas that are more than 2,500 meters above sea level in Syria and Lebanon, including the Mount Hermon range, so that the opportunity for snowfall and accumulation on these heights will be available starting from the evening and night hours of Sunday and the dawn of Monday, and this snow will be dense at times, which may lead to the closure of roads leading to these heights.

The effect of the low pressure system is expected to gradually recede on Monday, with the region remaining under the influence of the remnants of the cold air mass, so that there is still a chance for scattered showers of rain in some areas, especially in the coastal and western regions.
