Arab Weather - Satellite images from the Arab Weather Regional Center have detected a powerful and massive sandstorm over southern Iraq. The storm is gradually moving over the next few hours, especially in the evening, directly toward Kuwait, particularly its inland regions.

This results in a significant increase in dust levels in the atmosphere, and a significant decrease in horizontal visibility, which may reach zero. Therefore, the Arab Weather website advises closing windows, taking the necessary precautions to deal with dusty conditions, and being aware of the risk of reduced horizontal visibility due to the density of dust.

And God knows best.
