WASM Regional Center.. Hot weather affecting the Kingdom is typical and shows no record or extreme temperatures..
The hot weather that affected the Kingdom is (typical) and natural for the summer season, which started from Sunday afternoon until Tuesday morning and declined significantly in the western part starting from Tuesday afternoon. Temperatures were close to their seasonal averages in most Jordan Valley, Dead Sea, and Aqaba areas, with no unusual or extreme temperature readings recorded. In the capital, temperatures ranged between 36-38°C and reached 40°C at the far eastern edges in southeast northern Marqa and at Amman Civil Airport within the desert region of the capital. No extreme heat was recorded in Aqaba, the Dead Sea, and Ghor Al-Safi. In Deir Alla, temperatures reached 47.9°C, and these areas are naturally very hot and record such temperatures on many summer days. The areas located behind the West Bank mountains on the eastern side towards the occupied Palestinian territories are considered the hottest in the region.
These hot conditions will recede starting from Tuesday gradually and remain in the eastern region of the Kingdom, with temperatures remaining slightly above or around their seasonal averages in western Kingdom until Friday.
Temperatures slightly above seasonal averages until Friday..
With the sharp decline of hot conditions that affected the Kingdom for a short period, temperatures will remain slightly above their seasonal averages in general, while hot conditions continue to affect the eastern and desert regions of the Kingdom. This is due to the continued presence of the hot air mass in that region, with northwesterly winds moderating conditions.
A pleasant temperature air mass begins Friday/Saturday night and Saturday..
Pleasant weather conditions will affect the Kingdom, especially in mountainous areas, with temperatures dropping below seasonal averages again, recording in the twenties in the capital and mountains. Cold nights are expected to return starting from Saturday/Sunday night and throughout the nights of the coming week. The WASM Regional Center is monitoring unseasonable weather fluctuations mid-next week that will increase the chances of thunderstorm showers in some areas of the Kingdom.
