<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><strong>Weather of Arabia -</strong> The Maghreb region is affected by a wave resulting from the effect of the heat dome phenomenon, which led to temperatures rising to levels of forty degrees Celsius in many regions. According to Arab weather experts, this heat wave comes as a result of the accumulation of hot air in the upper layers of the atmosphere, which leads to a significant rise in temperatures on the surface.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>The heat wave will continue for the coming days, accompanied by temperatures reaching the mid-40s</strong></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> According to the latest outputs of advanced computer models, the Maghreb countries are affected by a heat wave for several days, as temperatures rise and very hot weather prevails in various regions, with maximum temperatures recorded ranging between 42 and 45 degrees Celsius in several regions of the Maghreb, including Morocco and Algeria. And Tunisia.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /> The reason why the Maghreb was affected by this wave is due to the heat dome, which is a climatic phenomenon resulting from an area of high air pressure in the high layers of the atmosphere that works to heat the air in the lower layers of the atmosphere due to a dynamic process called (heating under pressure), where with the compression of the air in a certain area Under the influence of an air ridge in the high layers of the atmosphere, a hot, surface air mass is created, the intensity of which varies according to the region and the intensity of the air ridge, and also according to the period of its formation during the year.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /> The air riser traps the hot air like a lid or cover on a boiling pot. As the hot air expands vertically in the atmosphere, the high pressure pushes it toward the ground again. The air is compressed again under the area of high atmospheric pressure, causing it to gain more heat. This is scientifically known as sub-heating. the pressure.</p><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /> <strong>Tips for dealing with a heat wave:</strong></h3><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>1. Avoid going out during hot times of the day.<br /> 2. Wear light and loose clothing.<br /> 3. Drink large amounts of water and fluids.<br /> 4. Avoid strenuous physical activities.<br /> 5.
