WASM - The WASM Regional Center is issuing the monthly bulletin for May 2023 using its advanced climate model, which is unique in the Arab region and characterized by high accuracy. It has been able to detect the strength of the rainy season in the eastern Arab region, and its accuracy in some periods exceeded 87%, with an overall accuracy of around 70%. The center will work on developing this model during this summer.
May 2023 - Unstable with Continued Rain Chances..
Weather fluctuations will continue throughout May, especially during the second and last weeks of the month. Rain chances will persist during a later period, and it is also expected that rain chances will increase towards the end of the month in many areas. The continuation of the rainy season during this period is due to exceptional and unusual atmospheric circulation, which is expected to repeat more frequently in the coming years as a result of severe climate change.
The world is expected to be affected by the El Niño phenomenon, which will bring strong weather fluctuations and extreme weather conditions to various regions of the world, especially during the beginning of the upcoming rainy season. This phenomenon will cause weather fluctuations to continue until the beginning of summer in a rare occurrence.
Weather Condition Details During May..
- Weather fluctuations from the 5th through the 9th of the month resulting in sharp temperature variations and rainfall showers, especially between the 6th and 9th (Yellow Level).
- Weather fluctuations renew in mid-month with temperature variations and increased chances of rainfall showers (Yellow Level).
- More pronounced weather fluctuations during the end of the month with high chances of rainfall and sharp temperature variations (Yellow Level).
Tips and Guidelines..
Due to the continued weather fluctuations, we always recommend continuing to wear spring or light winter clothing, especially during the night and morning in the capital and mountainous areas, as the region is affected by sharp and unusual weather fluctuations compared to this time of year. It is always recommended to follow the warnings of the Jordanian Meteorology Department and monitor the latest daily updates, as this bulletin does not replace daily bulletins, which are usually more accurate and detailed.
