The Kingdom will be increasingly affected by a state of atmospheric instability on Thursday and Friday, with showers of rain falling in several areas, sometimes accompanied by thunder.

Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that the latest weather maps indicate that the Kingdom will be increasingly affected on Thursday and Friday by a state of atmospheric instability resulting from the extension of the Red Sea depression, coinciding with the advance of a cold upper trough from Egyptian lands towards the Kingdom.

Cold weather on Wednesday/Thursday night and continued chances of rain in some areas including Aqaba and neighboring areas

Starting tonight, Wednesday/Thursday night, temperatures will drop and the weather will be generally cold and dusty to varying degrees. The sensible temperatures, that is, the temperatures that the human body feels, will drop clearly due to the activity of the eastern winds, which will be accompanied by strong gusts, especially on the slopes of the mountainous heights and the areas of the Jordan Valley and the Jordan Valley, including the Dead Sea area.

The Kingdom continues to be affected by a state of atmospheric instability, as the weather is partly cloudy to cloudy at times, and the chances of rain remain in some areas and randomly, but they are concentrated in the south and east of the Kingdom, and the rain in those areas is sometimes thunderous and it is not unlikely that it will extend to the city of Aqaba and neighboring areas, especially at dawn on Thursday.

Thursday: The Kingdom will continue to be affected by unstable weather conditions with showers of rain accompanied by thunder and dust.

On Thursday, temperatures will remain around their average for this time of year, with temperatures ranging between 14-16 degrees Celsius in the capital Amman, meaning relatively cold to cold weather will prevail, especially with the continued activity of the easterly winds, especially in the morning and before noon, which will raise dust levels in the atmosphere. The Kingdom will continue to be affected by a state of atmospheric instability, with the weather generally being partly cloudy, with scattered showers of rain in random areas, concentrated in the south and east of the Kingdom, and heavy rain in some geographical areas of the southern regions, accompanied by thunder and hail showers, which increases the chance of floods, especially in the south of the Kingdom.

North-easterly winds will continue to blow over the Kingdom, with moderate to active speeds, sometimes accompanied by strong gusts during the influence of cumulonimbus and thunderclouds, causing dust storms and perhaps dust waves in some areas.

Despite the warm weather in the Jordan Valley, Dead Sea and Aqaba regions, there are good chances of rain showers that may be accompanied by thunder.

Although the weather will be warm in the Jordan Valley and Aqaba regions on Thursday, with maximum temperatures reaching the mid-twenties Celsius, chances of rain include the Aqaba region, the Dead Sea and some areas of the Jordan Valley, where clouds will multiply, resulting in showers of varying intensity and at spaced intervals, sometimes accompanied by thunder.

Thursday night, the weather will be cold and partly cloudy to cloudy at times, and there will still be a chance of rain, God willing, from time to time, sometimes accompanied by thunder.

In the east of the Kingdom, the rains will be thundery and sometimes heavy, accompanied by hail showers that may be dense, which increases the chance of floods and torrential rains. The winds will be northeasterly and moderate in speed, but they will be active and cause dust in some areas.

Cold weather and chances of rain continuing on Friday, then receding at night, with fog forming in several areas.

Weather experts at the Arab Weather Center indicated that on Friday, the weather will remain relatively cold to cold, and clouds will appear, with the weather varying between partly cloudy and cloudy, with showers of rain in different areas of the Kingdom, including the capital Amman, and thunderstorms in parts of the southern and eastern Badia.

On Friday/Saturday evening and night, the weather will be generally cold in most areas, and very cold over the high mountainous areas, the eastern plains and the desert. It is expected that the chances of rain will gradually decrease, but they will remain possible in random and limited parts of the Kingdom, especially the eastern regions.

Surface humidity levels also rise significantly with the formation of fog over high mountain heights. The fog is dense and may cause a decrease or even a complete absence of horizontal visibility. The winds are northwesterly and moderate in speed, with active gusts in desert areas.

Recommendations:

• - Beware of dusty atmospheres for patients with respiratory and eye diseases.
• - Risk of sandstorms and poor horizontal visibility, especially on desert roads and eastern plains.
• - Beware of the possibility of flash floods in different areas of the Kingdom, especially in the afternoon hours.

God knows best.
