Arab Weather - The latest weather map outputs in "Arab Weather", which track the movement of tropical cyclones, indicate that Hurricane Julian in the Pacific Ocean has developed into a dangerous Category 4 hurricane after maintaining its strength today as it continues to move west over the Luzon Strait towards Taiwan.

 

The authorities warned of the danger associated with Hurricane Julian, which is accompanied by destructive winds exceeding 250 km/hour, which increases the risk of waves rising near coastal areas by more than 10 meters, which threatens to flood coastal areas and pose a real danger to maritime navigation. Hurricane Julian is also expected to be accompanied by massive rainfall exceeding 1000 mm, which poses a real risk of flooding and building collapse due to heavy rain.
