Arab Weather - The latest numerical model readings from the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that Iraq will be affected by a Khamaseen depression over the weekend, accompanied by a relatively hot and dry air mass. Temperatures will rise to the mid-thirties across large areas of the country, along with active surface winds that will stir up dust.

Friday: A Khamaseen depression approaches Iraq

In detail, a Khamaseen depression will approach Iraq during the daytime hours of Friday, pushing a relatively hot and dry air mass. Therefore, temperatures will rise in all regions of Iraq, and will be higher than their average for this time of year by about 7-9 degrees Celsius. The weather will be relatively hot and dry in many regions, with maximum temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius. Winds will be moderate in speed from the southeast in the western regions.

During the night hours of Thursday/Friday, the weather will be relatively warm in most areas, tending to moderate during the late night and early morning hours, especially in the north and west of the country.

The Khamasin depression was centered in western Iraq on Saturday, and the influence of the hot air mass intensified.

God willing, the Khamaseen depression is expected to move to center west of Iraq on Saturday, causing the hot air mass to intensify. Therefore, temperatures will rise again, to be 9-12 degrees Celsius higher than their average for this time of year. The weather will be relatively hot to hot, with temperatures in the mid-thirties in many areas. The winds will be southeasterly, active in speed, causing dust waves in many areas.

During the night hours of Saturday/Sunday, Iraq will continue to be affected by the Khamaseen depression, with a significant rise in nighttime temperatures compared to previous nights. The weather will be warm during the night hours, especially in the central and southern regions of the country. The winds will be southeasterly to southwesterly, active in speed, and accompanied by strong gusts that will stir up dust and dirt, especially in the west.

And God knows best.
