Arab Weather - Meteorologists at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that the latest readings from what is called computer simulation indicate that Iraq will be increasingly affected, God willing, during the hours of Sunday by a very cold polar air mass, so temperatures will drop further, especially at night, to reach around zero degrees Celsius in the capital, Baghdad, with freezing.

Temperatures drop further and are colder than their usual rates for this time of year by about 8-10 degrees Celsius. The weather is remarkably cold in most areas and very cold over the mountains. Clouds appear in northern Iraq with snow falling over the high mountain heights. The winds are northwesterly, moderate in speed, and sometimes active.

Sunday/Monday night and Monday morning, the cold polar winds will deepen to Iraq

During the hours of Sunday/Monday night and Monday morning, the cold polar winds will deepen into Iraq, and temperatures will drop significantly to below zero degrees Celsius in large areas of northern and western Iraq, while they will reach nearly zero degrees Celsius in the capital, Baghdad, and a severe state of freezing and ice will occur in large areas of Iraq, especially those that have witnessed snowfall.

Recommendations:

  • Wearing heavy winter clothing
  • Beware of snow and ice buildup on roofs.
  • Heating crops and livestock

And God knows best.
