WASM - The WASM Regional Center issued an early weather alert for winter atmospheric conditions expected to begin on Thursday evening, which will result in large amounts of rainfall and heavy precipitation over wide areas of the kingdom.
In detail, the weather will be stable and warm during the day throughout the beginning and middle of the new week, with a noticeable rise in temperature approaching 23-25 degrees Celsius during midday in the capital and mountains, particularly on Monday and Tuesday, coinciding with the activity of easterly winds at times on Sunday morning.
Light rainfall will fall on Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning in scattered areas of the kingdom, coinciding with the continuation of the stable and warm period which precedes successive atmospheric lows expected to affect the kingdom.
The impact of the atmospheric low begins on Thursday evening, resulting in a significant drop in temperature and thunderous heavy rainfall over wide areas of the kingdom, with the intensification of the atmospheric low's impact during the weekend and a significant drop in temperature.
More successive atmospheric lows are expected until the end of the first week of December, accompanied by "large" quantities of rainfall, especially in the northern and central parts of the country.
The reason for expecting these atmospheric lows is due to the control of a strong atmospheric high over the European continent and North Africa, coinciding with the presence of strong storms over the northern Atlantic Ocean. This atmospheric system causes the accumulation of cold and polar air towards eastern Europe, then Turkey, and reaching the eastern Mediterranean Sea.
The WASM Regional Center issued the monthly bulletin for November earlier, where it predicted a cold and rainy month with heavy precipitation especially in the middle and end of the month. The climate model developed at WASM expects a cold and rainy winter for Jordan and countries in the region. This is the only model of its kind in the Arab region, which was distinguished by great accuracy that exceeded all global climate models during the fall season. This model was able to accurately determine all weather cases and their timing precisely, with the general accuracy during October and November exceeding 80-85%.
