Jordan | Early weather alert.. New and successive low-pressure systems with heavy rainfall beginning Friday

WASM- Jordan is expected to be affected by a new wave of successive atmospheric depressions starting from Friday, accompanied by heavy rainfall and cold weather conditions. The upcoming weather systems will affect wide areas of the kingdom, including the southern, eastern, and desert regions, which are expected to continue for several days.

Weather on Monday will be cold and generally stable with temperatures close to their seasonal averages for this time of year. Cloud cover will increase on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with cold and partly cloudy weather and light scattered rain falling in various regions of the kingdom.

The first atmospheric depression is expected to begin on Friday, which is forecast to cause widespread heavy rainfall affecting various regions of the kingdom, including desert and southern areas. Successive atmospheric depressions are expected to continue throughout the first week of January.

These depressions are expected to coincide at times with intensely cold winds and the continuation of heavy and continuous rainfall over wide areas. These atmospheric depressions will affect all regional countries and the Arabian Peninsula, Iraq, the Arab Gulf states, Turkey, Iran, and Egypt, making this one of the most powerful weather systems in the Middle East region in years.

Heavy rainfall weather conditions continue to affect wide areas of the Levant and Jordan since the end of November, with many regions achieving one-third of the seasonal rainfall total and some areas exceeding half of the seasonal rainfall. This marks the beginning of the current rainy season as the strongest in years, with no drought wave, rainfall interruption, rainfall stagnation, or even weakness in the performance of the rainy season affecting the kingdom as is commonly reported.
