Unusual movement of the atmosphere... tropical moisture reaches the Mediterranean Sea with cold winds and causes a severe rainstorm

Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Regional Center are following the latest results of numerical computer models regarding the numerical modeling sensing unusual behavior of the atmosphere during the coming days, as a wave of tropical moisture rushes through the African continent towards the Mediterranean Sea in an unusual manner, merging with cold air coming from the north towards the Mediterranean Sea, which is suffering from warming, which produces a severe rainstorm in central and southern Europe during the coming days.

Tropical humidity reaches the Mediterranean in an unusual way and merges with cold air

In detail, weather experts at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that, God willing, tropical moisture will rush towards the Mediterranean Sea in an unusual manner during the coming days, coinciding with the undulation of the polar jet stream and the rush of a cold upper basin towards central and southern Europe via the Tyrrhenian Sea, which is considered part of the Mediterranean Sea, which has been suffering from surface warming in the recent period as a result of marine heat waves.

With the combination of these weather conditions, a rainstorm forms over the European continent, where a deep low pressure system with atmospheric pressure values reaching 997 millibars is created, accompanied by a strong cold air front that crosses many countries and causes a severe rain wave that causes floods and torrents.

A strong cold front accompanies a rainstorm (accompanied by heavy rain, thunderstorms and hail)

Weather experts at the Arab Weather Center said that the deep air depression will move eastward, and thus the cold air will cross the surface of the Mediterranean Sea, which is suffering from warming, coinciding with the extension of tropical humidity, so that the weather activity will intensify and strongly affect central and southern Europe during the period between Sunday 9/8/2024 and Tuesday 9/10/2024, specifically the Balkan countries, especially Italy and Greece, and a severe cold air front will form accompanied by high-altitude thunderclouds accompanied by heavy rains and severe and successive thunderstorms and hail, which increases the risks of torrents and floods in many areas.

Heavy rainfall expected, flood risks rising especially in Italy

Heavy rainfall is expected in the coming days, especially in large areas of Italy. Based on current data and forecasts of heavy rainfall, the possibility of flooding in low-lying areas and valleys is increasing. Therefore, caution is advised.
