Jordan | Weather Alert: Unstable atmospheric conditions and unsettled weather tomorrow Sunday, with a polar wave beginning Thursday

WASM - The Kingdom will be affected tomorrow, Sunday, by unstable weather conditions and turbulent weather, especially in terms of temperatures. Winds will be active in the southern and eastern regions of the Kingdom, including Aqaba, which stirs dust and sand in desert areas. Scattered rain showers will fall which will sometimes be thunderstorms, especially in the north and center of the Kingdom during daytime hours.

In detail, a low-pressure system is positioned near the coasts of Palestine, which possesses some Khamsin characteristics, causing noticeable temperature fluctuations, with temperatures approaching 20 degrees Celsius during the day then dropping 8 degrees during the night. The atmosphere remains cold in the morning, with clear temperature fluctuations that require attention. Winds are expected to be active at times, especially in the south and east of the Kingdom, stirring dust and sand.

The northern and central regions will be affected by mostly cloudy conditions and moderate-speed winds that will intensify in the afternoon, with scattered rain showers and thunderstorms occurring at times.

Weather on Monday will be stable and generally cold, becoming mild during midday and afternoon hours, with scattered rain showers expected in the evening on Tuesday.

The Kingdom is expected to be affected by a polar wave that will begin gradually in the evening of Wednesday and will intensify at the end of the week accompanied by heavy precipitation and strong winds and a significant drop in temperatures, where the atmosphere is expected to be similar to what usually occurs in the month of January.

WASM issues a yellow alert level due to weather conditions tomorrow, Sunday, because of weather fluctuations which include rain showers in the north and center of the Kingdom and temperature variations and wind activity and dust stirring, especially in the south and east of the Kingdom.
