The latest weather forecasts indicate that the clouds known locally as Haqban clouds will continue to develop in these areas, and will begin to recede starting in the afternoon hours, and God knows best.

What are the drawdowns?

Al-Haqban clouds are medium to high altitude clouds that appear in the sky during the pre-Wasmi period. They are clouds that indicate that the region is entering a transitional phase between the hot and dry summer and the fall season, when the weather begins to gradually change with a decrease in temperatures and an increase in humidity levels.

The clouds are characterized by their sometimes bright white color, and they are often of the cumulus or stratus type. These clouds are formed by the meeting of cold northwesterly winds with warm southeasterly air masses, which leads to the lifting of moist air, and the formation of these cloud formations.
