Weather of Arabia - Weather monitoring stations, in addition to the official report issued by the local Wadi Al-Dawasir Airport, indicate that the dust storm that affected the governorate continued for about 12 hours (since Monday afternoon) until now, and led to a lack of horizontal visibility and decreased to less than 100. meter!

While the same data shows that the weather has begun to gradually improve and will continue to improve in the coming hours, God willing, as the dust storm moves towards the south.

Satellite images at the Arabia Weather Center indicate that the same wave is rushing towards the southwest of the Kingdom towards Najran and the eastern parts of the southwestern highlands, God willing.
