This state of turbulence comes as a result of the extension of a cold air depression in the upper layers of the atmosphere towards the western basin of the Mediterranean Sea, in conjunction with the activity of a desert depression and the rush of a warm air mass coming from the south, which creates severe weather turbulence that creates a state of atmospheric instability that is forming As a result, strong clouds accompanied by heavy thunderstorms.
