Arab Weather - Based on the latest outputs from computer simulations, Arab Weather experts reported that 5 Arab countries will be affected, God willing, during the last days of this year by a low-pressure system centered southwest of Turkey and gradually moving eastward, accompanied by a cold and humid air mass, bringing rain and cold weather to large areas of the region, with snow falling over the high elevations in Syria and Lebanon.
In detail, all regions of the Levant and northern Egypt will be affected by a low-pressure system starting Saturday until the last day of this year, centered in southern Turkey and moving eastward to center south of Cyprus, accompanied by a cold and humid air mass, so temperatures drop and rain falls over wide areas. The effects of the low-pressure system on the region can be summarized as follows:
Syria and Lebanon: The low pressure system will be on the coastal areas and will extend less severely towards the interior, where rain will be heavy to very heavy and accompanied by thunderstorms and hail. Rainfall is expected to be heavy on the coastal areas, and snow will fall on the high mountainous elevations, including the coastal heights in Syria, where the snow will be heavy and accumulated in many areas. Active to strong southwesterly winds will blow, and the sea will be rough.
Palestine: The effects of the low pressure system are expected to include the State of Palestine, where cold and rainy winter weather prevails at times, with heavy rains sometimes accompanied by thunderstorms and hail showers. The heavy rains include the Gaza Strip with its heavy rains and active winds, and the low pressure system will bring large amounts of rain that may exceed 100 mm in some areas, especially coastal areas.
Jordan: The Kingdom will be under the influence of a cold air mass accompanied by a low pressure system, but it will be centered far from the Kingdom. The weather will be generally cold in most areas, with scattered chances of rain, God willing, concentrated in the north of the Kingdom. These rain showers may sometimes extend to some central areas at intervals in time. The chances of rain will improve and will cover wider areas on Monday/Tuesday night and Tuesday due to the approach of the center of the low pressure system.
Egypt: Rain chances are set to cover large areas of the northern coasts starting Sunday. Rain chances are also likely to extend to some areas of central and southern Delta and Canal cities, reaching some neighborhoods of Greater Cairo, albeit to a lesser extent and on limited geographical areas, especially on Monday and Tuesday. Rain chances are set to gradually decrease in the northern regions of Egypt starting from Wednesday, God willing.
And God knows best.
