Again: Aqaba recorded the hottest temperature on Earth on Friday 10/9/2020

Arab Weather - again and after the completion of the recording of the maximum temperatures for Friday 10/9/2020 (according to the World Meteorological Organization responsible for collecting the temperatures recorded for the purposes of documentation from the countries' observatories), the city of Aqaba recorded the highest maximum temperature on the face of the globe for this day Friday 9 / 10/2020, which recorded a maximum temperature of 44.6 degrees Celsius, surpassing all Gulf countries in addition to countries in the Southern Hemisphere, after the approaching summer season there, in an exceptional precedent again after it was repeated in the beginning of September. The temperature recorded today is the highest ever recorded in the city’s climate records for the month of October .

This comes due to the Kingdom being affected by a hot air mass associated with an extension of the so-called Red Sea depression, which led to the rise in temperatures above the usual rates of more than 5 degrees Celsius and reached summer record levels. The same hot air mass has also caused widespread fires in the Syrian and Palestinian lands today as a result of the dry and eastern winds associated with high temperatures.

The following is the order of the maximum temperatures recorded worldwide today, Friday 10/9/2020:
