Arab Weather - Sinan Khalaf - The weather forecasting staff at the "Arab Weather Regional Center" warned of the severity of the heat in the capital, Riyadh, starting from Wednesday and during the weekend, with hot and exhausting weather prevailing, especially during the afternoon and evening periods.

Temperatures touching 46 degrees Celsius

A hotter air mass will affect Riyadh at the end of the week

Experts at the Arab Weather Regional Center expect the impact of the subtropical high pressure system on the region to increase, causing a significant and noticeable rise in temperatures in the eastern and central parts of the Kingdom.

Temperatures in Riyadh are expected to be around 46 degrees Celsius at the end of this week and the beginning of next week, and may exceed that in some areas surrounding the capital, especially its eastern parts.

Important recommendations during the influence of the hot mass

Arab Weather warns of this rise in temperatures, which may increase the possibility of sunstroke and heat stress, so we advise everyone to follow the following instructions:

  • Avoid direct and prolonged exposure to sunlight.
  • Drink plenty of water to hydrate the body and compensate for fluid loss.
  • Do not leave children inside vehicles as this poses a danger to their lives.
  • Do not leave explosive materials inside vehicles such as portable chargers, mobile phones, perfumes, and air fresheners.
