Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that the latest satellite images received from remote sensing systems show the formation of a low pressure system north of the Arabian Sea, centered over the Indian coast at 25 degrees north latitude and 70 degrees east longitude, accompanied by winds reaching more than 50 km/h and atmospheric pressure values reaching 995 millibars. Large amounts of clouds laden with tropical moisture revolve around it, causing very heavy rainfall, and thus causing torrents and floods.

 

Will the depression affect the Arab countries overlooking the Arabian Sea?

 

In this context, weather experts at the Arab Weather Center said that the latest outputs from the so-called computer simulation show that the Arab countries overlooking the Arabian Sea will not be affected by the low pressure system during the next three to four days, and therefore its effects will remain far from the Arab countries overlooking the Arabian Sea, such as the Sultanate of Oman and Yemen. However, developments in this low pressure system are being monitored, and it is possible that it will move westward, and some of its effects will affect parts of the Arab countries overlooking the Arabian Sea, especially with the beginning of September. We will provide you with the details as soon as they are issued.

 

The second season of tropical activity in the Arabian Sea is approaching

 

In this context, the second season of tropical activity in the Arabian Sea begins during the month of October and continues in the month of November. It is called (Post-monsoon), meaning the season that follows the activity of the monsoon winds in the Arabian Sea. This does not mean that there is no possibility of tropical activity in another period of the year, but the previous two periods are considered the peak of tropical activity in the Arabian Sea.

 

With the entry of the second season of activity, the chances of tropical cases forming in the Arabian Sea increase, especially when the weather conditions are favorable, such as the warm sea surface temperature exceeding 27 degrees Celsius, as the warm water and the resulting water vapor are considered the fuel that feeds tropical cases. In addition to the weakness of wind shear, because wind shear limits the vertical growth of cumulonimbus clouds, i.e. it hinders the process of increasing the thickness of the clouds.

 

God knows best.
