Arab Weather - Meteorologists at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that the latest outputs from the so-called computer simulation indicate that Iraq will continue to be affected by a wave of severe cold resulting from the extension of the so-called Siberian high during this night and during the coming days, as temperatures remain colder than usual for this time of year amidst a very cold atmosphere at night and in the early morning.

 

Tonight: Very cold weather, temperatures will reach near zero in Baghdad, while they will be lower in other areas.

 

In detail, weather maps specializing in temperature paths show that Iraq will continue to be affected by the Siberian wave, which is very cold, during the night hours of Monday/Tuesday, as minimum temperatures drop to around zero degrees Celsius in many areas, including neighborhoods of the capital, Baghdad, while they drop below zero degrees Celsius in some northern and western areas, while frost formation is not ruled out in many agricultural areas.

 

Iraq will continue to be affected by a severe cold wave in the coming days, and temperatures will be colder than their average for this time of year.

 

God willing, Iraq is expected to continue to be affected by the cold wave in the coming days, and thus temperatures will remain colder than usual for this time of year. Cold weather prevails during the daytime, with maximum temperatures not exceeding 15 degrees Celsius in the capital, Baghdad, which requires continuing to wear heavy clothing.

 

During the night hours, the general atmosphere remains very cold or bitterly cold, with minimum temperatures dropping to around zero degrees Celsius in large areas of the country, including neighborhoods of the capital, Baghdad. The chance of frost formation remains high in all areas of the country, including agricultural areas, especially in light of the availability of favorable weather conditions such as clear skies and low wind speeds.

 

Under observation: Unstable weather conditions affect Iraq by the end of this week

 

Meteorologists at the Arab Weather Center are monitoring initial indications that Iraq will be affected by a state of atmospheric instability starting Friday, resulting from the extension of the so-called Red Sea depression with the approach of a cold upper basin from the west, where clouds multiply and the opportunity for showers of rain is prepared in scattered areas. We will provide you with more details as the time period approaches.

 

God knows best.
