Lebanon’s peaks, which exceed 1,400 meters, are heavy and accumulated snow, while brisk southwesterly winds blow over the Levant, with strong gusts sometimes reaching nearly 100 km/hour, causing dust waves, especially in desert areas and to a lesser extent in the rest of the regions. It reduces the range of horizontal vision.<h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Second: Crossing the most severe section of the air depression on Monday afternoon and evening</h2> The chances of precipitation decrease temporarily in the afternoon and are intermittent, in preparation for the crossing of a new air front later, so that dusty, stormy and very cold weather prevails in this period with strong winds, and as of Monday afternoon and evening, the effect of the depression deepens, which will be superficially centered at the time in northwest Syria. The air is very cold, as a new air front is expected to cross the atmosphere of the Levant, so the weather will become stormy, cloudy and rainy, God willing, and the rain will be heavy and accompanied by hail showers in several parts of Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon and western Syria, while it is less severe in the rest of the Syrian regions. . <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/ArabiaWEatherLevannnt.jpeg" style="width: 800px; height: 450px;" /> Showers of snow continue to fall over the high mountainous heights of more than 1,100 meters above sea level in Palestine and Jordan, and sometimes accumulate over areas above 1,300 meters above sea level, which include parts of the Sharah Mountains in the governorates of Tafileh and Maan. Lebanon's peaks of more than 1,400 meters are heavy and accumulating snow, God willing.<h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Third: Wet western currents and the remnants of the cold air mass from Tuesday until the end of the week</h2> The depression is moving towards the east, away from the Kingdom, and is centered on Tuesday to the north-east of Iraq, and the Levant remains under the influence of humid western currents and the remnants of the cold air mass, so that the weather will continue to be cold and often cloudy, while the opportunity remains prepared for showers of rain, God willing, at intervals, which are heavy.
