Arab Weather - Recent analyses at the Arab Weather Center indicated the formation of a strong high pressure system over western and southern Europe, and as a result, relatively cold air masses are rushing towards the eastern European continent, reaching the eastern Mediterranean Sea, starting from Sunday evening, thus increasing the chances of a low pressure area forming around the island of Cyprus.

 

A relatively cold air mass accompanied by the formation of an area of low atmospheric pressure.

 

In detail, a relatively cold and humid air mass will rush towards the eastern Mediterranean basin during the evening and night hours of Sunday/Monday, where an area of low surface pressure will form, resulting in unstable weather conditions accompanied by heavy to very heavy rains in southern Turkey and Cyprus. The rains will be accompanied by strong thunderstorms and hail showers, which will increase the risk of floods and rising water levels.

 

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

 

The effects of the relatively cold air mass extend to Syria and Lebanon during the evening and night hours of Sunday/Monday, where temperatures drop and unstable weather conditions prevail, resulting in the proliferation of cumulonimbus clouds, and heavy thunderstorms of rain 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 parts of northern Jordan. Experts at the Arab Weather Center point out that transitional periods between seasons often witness rapid changes in weather systems, which affects the accuracy of forecasts in the medium and long term. Therefore, you will be provided with more details in the coming days based on computer simulation updates, God willing.

 

God knows best.
