This state of atmospheric turbulence comes as a result of the extension of a cold air depression in the upper layers of the atmosphere towards the eastern basin of the Mediterranean and the Levant region, in conjunction with the activity of the Red Sea depression and the rush of a warm air mass coming from the south, which creates severe weather turbulence that has created a state of Atmospheric instability leads to the formation of strong clouds accompanied by heavy thunderstorms.
