Arab Weather - The Kingdom has been affected by Khamasin weather conditions since Tuesday morning, with relatively hot and dusty conditions prevailing at varying intensity. Khamasin weather conditions are expected to continue tonight before beginning to recede on Wednesday as a result of the approach of a relatively cold and humid air mass from the eastern Mediterranean basin, including the Kingdom.

 

Starting with the evening and night hours of Tuesday/Wednesday, the weather will be much warmer than usual, and a denser dust wave is expected. The atmosphere will become dusty over time, with the dust density increasing significantly in the late afternoon and night. There is also a possibility of light mud rain in the afternoon and evening hours in limited areas.

 

Wednesday: A significant drop in temperature, moderate but dusty weather with varying degrees of intensity, and heavy dust in the desert areas and desert roads.

God willing, the low pressure system is expected to move away on Wednesday to center west of Iraq, causing temperatures to drop significantly, but remain 3-5 degrees Celsius above average. The weather will be warm but somewhat dusty, with some medium and high clouds appearing during the afternoon. Winds will be westerly and moderate in speed, with active gusts during the afternoon, and the winds will stir up dust of varying intensity.

 

In the desert regions, roads, and eastern plains, strong winds will blow in the afternoon and evening, causing dense dust storms, leading to a significant reduction in horizontal visibility and possibly zero visibility in those areas.

 

A relatively cold air mass is pushing behind the Khamasin depression during the night hours of Wednesday/Thursday.

God willing, the Kingdom will be affected during the evening and night hours of Wednesday/Thursday by a relatively cold and humid air mass pushing behind the Khamaseen depression. Therefore, temperatures will drop and the weather will become cold across all regions, with high humidity levels in the atmosphere and the appearance of low clouds that may lead to the formation of fog over the peaks of the mountainous heights, especially in the north and south of the Kingdom.

 

Significant temperature differences between day and night are expected, ranging from 10-15 degrees Celsius, reaching around 18-20 degrees in desert areas. These differences increase the risk of colds and seasonal illnesses, especially among children, requiring caution.

Thursday and Friday: A relatively cold air mass will affect the Kingdom, with relatively cold weather during the day and cold weather at night, with low clouds appearing.

On Thursday, April 10, 2025, the Kingdom will be increasingly affected by a relatively cold air mass, causing temperatures to drop further, becoming 4-6 degrees Celsius cooler than usual. The weather will be relatively cold and partly to mostly cloudy at times, with a chance of scattered showers in some areas, God willing. Winds will be northwesterly to westerly, moderate in speed, becoming particularly active during the afternoon and evening hours, causing dust storms in all areas, desert roads, and eastern plains.

 

On Friday, temperatures will remain several degrees Celsius cooler than usual, with relatively cool conditions during the day and cold conditions at night, with low clouds appearing.

 

In light of the expected weather fluctuations, the Arab Weather Center advises people to be aware of reduced visibility on all desert roads and border crossings due to heavy dust. They also advise driving with caution when rainfall begins, being aware of significant temperature differences, and wearing warm clothing.

 

And God knows best.
