Jordan | Monthly Report for March.. More Weather Depressions and Polar Waves

WASM- The WASM Regional Center issues the monthly weather bulletin for March using the advanced climate model developed at WASM Regional Center, which is characterized by the highest accuracy in the region.

The continuation of winter low-pressure systems activity is expected with increased chances of snowfall before mid-month again as a result of an expected new polar wave affecting the region and Jordan. Additionally, the chance of a flash flood wave increases towards the end of the month.

The actual beginning of spring is expected during the end of the month, and khamsin lows are expected to activate after mid-month followed by a strong winter weather condition accompanied by heavy precipitation.

Summary of expected weather conditions during March as follows..

- 2 to 5 of the month.. very cold weather condition accompanied by heavy precipitation at times.
- 8 to 12 of the month.. an expected polar wave over the Kingdom resulting in heavy precipitation and increased chances of snowfall.
- 15 to 18 of the month.. temperature fluctuations and expected rainfall.
- 22 to 28 of the month.. a wave of heavy rains with increased chances of flash flood formation preceded by the effect of a khamsin low.

Sharp temperature fluctuations are expected following the polar wave expected to affect between March 8-12, as temperatures begin to change sharply between rising with a noticeable feeling of warmth then noticeable decline and weather condition fluctuations.

The upcoming month is characterized by strong weather activity especially before mid-month during the polar wave effect, as well as the end of the month in the form of a heavy wave of rains and flash flood formation with expected snowfall showers on some peaks.

WASM Regional Center relies on the advanced climate model, which continues to produce highly accurate results. This model was able to detect the strong snowstorm that affected Jordan in recent days, which was classified as the strongest snowstorm in more than 6-8 years.
