WASM – A moderate summer wave continues to affect the Kingdom over the coming days with temperatures in the twenties in the capital and mountains and below seasonal averages by around 5-7 degrees Celsius and rarely seasonal compared to this hotter summer period during the year.
Winds remain westerly with active speeds and strong gusts at times, especially in desert and exposed areas, stirring dust and causing a decrease in horizontal visibility.
The moderate summer wave will coincide with high humidity levels, especially during the night and morning, leading to the appearance of low clouds and fog formation in the high mountains.
Moderate wave continues throughout next week|
The moderate wave continues throughout next week, weakening and intensifying from one day to another with the continuation of nights that tend to be cool in the mountains and plains, which necessitates wearing slightly warm clothing during the night, especially for children and the elderly.
Maximum temperatures reach 27-28 degrees Celsius only in the capital and mountains and 15-17 degrees Celsius at night and in the morning, and around 35-37 degrees Celsius in Aqaba, the Ghor, and the Dead Sea.
Temperature rise after August 8-10 |
Temperatures rise after August 8-10 and normal summer conditions return or hotter than usual in some periods and this temperature rise is expected to be temporary before temperatures drop again after mid-month.
