Arabia Weather - Meteorological specialists at the Regional Arab Weather Center said that the latest computer model outputs indicate that large areas of the Gulf will continue to be affected in the coming days by a heat wave resulting from the intensification of the Arab air high, which works to fuel the heat dome phenomenon, which is accompanied by an air mass with high surface heating that acts To raise temperatures to approximately 50 degrees Celsius, especially in the desert areas of Iraq, Kuwait, and parts of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the Emirates, and the Sultanate of Oman, God willing.

 

Iraq and Kuwait: The heat of summer ignites the atmosphere with temperatures that may reach 50 degrees Celsius at the end of the week

 

Computer numerical models at the Arabia Weather Center sense that a blazing center of extremely hot air mass will be centered over Iraq and loom over most regions of Iraq, causing a clear intensification of the heat wave on Thursdays and Fridays, as temperatures will rise further, exceeding what they are supposed to be by about 4 - 6 degrees Celsius, and the most appropriate description of the weather at that time is as scorching in Baghdad and in all regions of Iraq, where maximum temperatures range between 48-49 degrees Celsius in the capital, Baghdad, while reaching the threshold of 50-51 degrees Celsius in the southern and desert regions, including the city of Basra. .

 

As for Kuwait, it is expected, God willing, and according to advanced numerical modeling in Arabian weather, that maximum temperatures during the heat wave will reach 50 degrees Celsius in many parts of the country, especially at the end of the week, specifically in the desert and interior areas, especially Jahra and its environs.

 

Saudi Arabia: Very hot weather, with temperatures reaching 50 degrees Celsius in some areas

 

Specialists at the Arabia Weather Center said that Saudi Arabia is the third country most affected by the heat dome and is not far from the flames of the extremely hot air mass, where very hot summer weather prevails, and maximum temperatures may reach approximately 50 degrees Celsius in eastern Saudi Arabia, especially in the desert areas. Most attention is on Nairyah and Hafar Al-Batin, which may record the highest temperatures in the Kingdom at the end of the week.

 

Qatar and Bahrain: Very hot weather, with temperatures exceeding the mid-40s

UAE and Oman: Very hot weather, with highs exceeding the mid-40s

 

The UAE and the Sultanate of Oman will continue to be affected, God willing, during the end of this week by a strong air pressure in the upper layers of the atmosphere, which is accompanied by an air mass with high surface heating. Therefore, the weather remains hot to very hot in the various regions of the Emirates and Oman, especially the desert ones, and the maximum temperature will be about Between 44-47 degrees Celsius in the interior areas, including the city of Al Ain and its environs, and the desert areas of the Sultanate of Oman.
