Arab Weather - Jordan was affected by a second-degree (winter) low-pressure system accompanied by an extremely cold air mass across all layers of the atmosphere. As a result of the extreme cold in the atmosphere, especially the low layers, the northern mountain peaks, especially the peaks of Jerash and Ajloun governorates, especially the Ras Munif area, witnessed snowfall. Snow accumulated during the hours of Thursday/Friday night and Friday morning and dawn.
As the extremely cold winds deepened, snow spread to some peaks of the central highlands, including the peaks of Balqa, and some high-altitude neighborhoods west of the capital, including Khalda and Tlaa Al-Ali. Accumulating for a short period, this snowfall is the first of its kind during Ramadan in about 27 years, and it coincides with the first day of the vernal equinox.
