Arabia Weather - Experts at the Regional Arabia Weather Center said that the outputs of computer numerical models indicate that a hot, dry air mass from the African sub-Saharan region will continue to dominate the Maghreb during the coming days. This hot air mass rises to what is known as a heat wave, during which temperatures may reach 50 degrees Celsius, especially in Algeria.

 

The heat wave affects most of the Maghreb countries, but Algeria is most affected

 

In detail, the countries of the Maghreb, especially Tunisia and Algeria, will be affected in the coming days by a heat wave with temperatures rising to be much higher than their averages for this time of the year. The weather will be hot to very hot in all regions, with maximum temperatures approaching 50 degrees Celsius in several regions of Algeria, especially the desert ones, in addition to Tunisia. It is not unlikely that some regions will record record temperatures, while the capitals and coastal areas will be far from the direct effects of this wave, as the weather will be moderate, with maximums ranging between 26-30 degrees Celsius in the capitals of the Maghreb and coastal areas.

 

Mountains, like coastal areas, will be under the influence of a less hot and humid air mass

 

According to the outputs of computer models, northern Algeria and mountainous areas in general in the Maghreb are affected by humid air currents and lower temperatures, as they are completely far from the effects of the heat wave. The mountainous regions remain in moderate temperatures, far from recording record temperatures (50) Celsius due to the geographical nature and the different sources of air currents.

 

God knows.
