WASM- The Kingdom continues to be affected by a "highly active" and "rare" atmospheric low-pressure system compared to this warm spring period, which has impacted all Middle Eastern regions and caused a strong, heavy, and comprehensive wave of rainfall, coinciding with heavy hail and snow showers on the peaks of high mountains.
The atmospheric low-pressure system's effects are confined to northern and central Kingdom from Thursday dawn..
The atmospheric low-pressure system's effects will be confined to northern and central Kingdom from midnight tonight and Thursday dawn, retreating from the southwestern parts of the country, due to western to southwestern winds with high humidity pushing specifically towards central Kingdom and north of the Dead Sea region and the capital Amman, affecting wide areas of northern and eastern Kingdom.
A "strong" peak over northern and central Kingdom from after midnight until Thursday evening..
The new and strong peak is expected to bring "large additional" amounts of rainfall over a wide range of northern and central Kingdom, with the atmospheric low-pressure system positioning itself northeast of Cyprus, coinciding with high atmospheric activity in the upper and middle layers of the atmosphere, which causes the formation of dense thunderstorm clouds and the surge of high-humidity winds called a "moisture channel" towards central and northern Kingdom.
The new peak will result in very large amounts of rainfall and thunderstorms with heavy hail sometimes and strong winds over northern and central Kingdom.
Weather conditions will weaken over the southwestern Kingdom and take the form of scattered rain showers, due to southwestern winds.
Weather stabilization from Thursday evening and Thursday/Friday night..
Weather will stabilize and the atmospheric low will fill, but weather will remain cold, humid, and occasionally foggy in many areas, and winds are expected to calm down.
High pressure system and weather stabilization with rising temperatures from the weekend onwards..
Weather will stabilize during the weekend and temperatures will rise noticeably, returning to their seasonal averages, around 22-24 degrees Celsius during the day in the capital and mountains, with rain showers in some areas from Sunday until Tuesday during evening periods but in a limited manner.
A new rainy weather condition starts during the holiday period and after..
WASM monitoring center is observing the return of heavy rainfall, as atmospheric circulation is unusual, with polar and very cold air positioned east of the European continent specifically, coinciding with a strong high-pressure system over a wide range of Europe, causing cold air masses to be pushed forcefully and in a rare manner towards Turkey, eastern Mediterranean and Jordan continuously, causing more strong and regional rainy conditions affecting a wide range of the Middle East.
WASM Regional Center is unique in weather forecasting due to W.DMM technology..
WASM center possesses W.DMM technology as well as its developed climate model which predicted these strong weather conditions weeks ago, and WASM center refuted drought waves that spread through local media which misunderstand climate changes, thinking they match what is happening in Europe due to lack of awareness and knowledge about weather and climate.
Jordan and the Middle East are affected by strong climate changes, which resulted in a "massive" increase in rainfall rates in recent years which was more apparent during the current season, which was characterized by its early and strong start since the autumn season, and the continuation of winter storms and multiple cases of flooding and torrents continuing with the same intensity until this warm spring period
