Saudi Arabia: Indications of a gradual improvement in the atmosphere during the second half of October and an increase in rain chances in several regions of the Kingdom.

Weather of Arabia - The latest weather maps through computer simulation models indicate that rain chances will be concentrated in the southwest of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia during the coming days, including the highlands of Jazan, Asir, Al-Baha, and some coastal plains in addition to the highlands of the Makkah Al-Mukarramah region, with expectations that their intensity will increase over the weekend. Weekly, it is accompanied by the occurrence of lightning strikes and activity in downward currents, with the possibility of flowing valleys and reefs.

It is also possible that the chances of rain, but in a weaker form, will include parts of the north of the Kingdom in the next few days, but in a scattered and limited manner overall.

Expectations that the atmosphere will gradually improve in the second half of October

Computer modeling maps at the Arabian Regional Weather Center indicate increasing indications that the organization of the atmosphere over the Arabian Peninsula is gradually improving during the second half of October, so that the cold upper basins of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s atmosphere deepen in conjunction with a superficial and effective response to the so-called Red Sea Depression and The flow of moisture into the different layers of the atmosphere, which leads to:

• The beginning of moderate weather and a drop in temperatures, especially in the north and northwest of the Kingdom.
• Chances of rain will gradually increase in many regions of the north, center and west of the Kingdom.
• Rain is accompanied by lightning strikes and downdrafts, causing temporary dust storms.
• The chances of flowing valleys and reefs gradually increase during the second half of the month.

Promising weather conditions during the season in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

The “Indian Ocean Polarity phenomenon” (IOD) is still trending towards positive values, which means a continuous rise in the water surface temperature in the western part of the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea, according to dynamic and statistical models.

These weather conditions provide a fertile environment for the formation of a region of thermal (convection/lift) currents necessary for the formation of dense thunderclouds and rainfall, God willing, when the rest of the weather conditions are integrated, perhaps the most important of which is the presence of cold air in the high layers of the atmosphere. This is also reflected in the intense moisture flow towards the Arabian Peninsula and Africa and the high chances of drought waves in Indonesia and neighboring regions.
