Weather of Arabia - The weather monitoring station at King Khalid International Airport in the capital, Riyadh, recorded Friday afternoon temperatures higher than usual for this time of year by about 10 degrees Celsius, reaching 33.7 degrees Celsius, which is the highest temperature recorded at the airport in 116 days.

On Friday, the capital, Riyadh, was directly affected by a warm air mass, accompanied by active southwesterly winds, which, thank God, was followed in the early hours of the night by the rush of a cold air front, which created unstable weather conditions, accompanied by active cumulus thunderclouds, rainfall, and hail showers.

Despite the drop in temperatures on Saturday, weather forecasts indicate an additional and significant drop on Sunday, with maximum temperatures around 22 degrees Celsius during the day and 13 degrees Celsius at night, and God knows best.
