Weather of Arabia - The latest readings of computer numerical models in the Arab Regional Weather Center indicate that Iraq was affected by a five-way depression at the end of the week associated with a hot and dry air mass accompanied by a clear rise in temperatures with an escalation in the proportions and quantities of dust in the atmosphere, especially on Saturday as a result of the possibility that the Republic will be affected by waves Dusty emanating from the desert of the Levant.

In the details, a Khamasini depression moves on Friday from northern Egypt to be stationed in western Iraq and causes a deepening of the effect of the hot air mass, so another rise occurs in temperatures to be higher than their rates for this time of the year by about 9-10 degrees Celsius, and the weather is hot to very hot. Temperatures are in the forty levels in many areas, and brisk southwesterly winds blow, causing dust waves in the western regions of Iraq, including the city of Rutba, the Baghdad International Road and the Trebil border crossing.

During the Friday/Saturday night hours, Iraq continues to be affected by the Khamasini depression, as there is a significant rise in the night temperatures compared to the previous nights, and the weather is relatively hot during the night hours, especially in the central and southern regions of the country, and the winds are southeast to northwest, moderate in speed. Sometimes it is accompanied by strong gusts that raise dust and dirt, especially in the west.

The Khamasini depression is away on Saturday, and dust waves enter the country's airspace

And with Sunday, the Khamasini depression is moving away from Iraq, and temperatures tend to decrease, but they remain higher than their rates for this time of the year, and the weather is hot in regions, due to the rush of a less hot air mass towards the Levant and the occurrence of sharp differences in atmospheric pressure values.

Active northwestern winds are blowing, bringing dust waves from the Levant desert with the northwest winds gradually entering all regions of Iraq, including the capital, Baghdad, all the way to the southern regions with the afternoon and evening hours, where the amounts of dust rise remarkably in the atmosphere, and the weather is dusty in many regions Especially the northwestern and central regions.

The dusty condition includes invasive roads such as the Baghdad International Road, which also includes the Trebil border crossing with Jordan.

This atmosphere calls for following some important recommendations, namely:

  • Pay attention to the high percentage of dust in the atmosphere and the possibility of complications in patients with the respiratory system and eyes.
  • Low and possibly no horizontal vision at times.
  • Close windows and doors to prevent dust from entering homes.

God knows.
