Weather of Arabia - many regions of the Kingdom are affected on Friday and Saturday by active northwest winds and strong gusts that create dust waves and sandstorms in large areas of the Arabian Peninsula, including the most important Gulf cities and capitals, including the capital, Riyadh, so what is the chance that Jeddah will be affected by the sandstorm?

The sandstorm begins in the north of the kingdom and moves south

The northern region of the Kingdom is witnessing active westerly winds on Thursday that create a dust wave over the Al-Jawf region and the northern borders, but this dust wave will be a prelude to a sandstorm that will gradually form on Friday in the north and move rapidly towards the southeast towards the eastern and central regions during the day and evening of Friday, and then later towards South and southwest of the kingdom on Saturday.

The city of Jeddah and all of the coasts overlooking the Red Sea will be far from the effects of this sandstorm, since its path will not be towards the Red Sea but towards the Arabian Gulf, and at a time when most of the Saudi public cities will be the capital, Riyadh and Dammam under the weight of dense dust, the atmosphere will be in the city Jeddah is stable, sunny and warm, with moderate northwest winds.
