Update Date | 3‑10‑2026

WASM — Weather fluctuations renew, and temperatures rise across northwestern Saudi Arabia and the Levant—especially Jordan and Palestine—toward mid and late week, accompanied by scattered showers and occasional wind activity.

Summer heat breaks across many regions of Saudi Arabia, the Arabian Peninsula, Kuwait, the Arabian Gulf, and Iraq, with renewed weather instability over northwestern Saudi Arabia, Al‑Jawf, Tabuk, and the highlands.

The Red Sea Trough extends toward the Levant and northwestern Saudi Arabia by mid and late week, causing a noticeable rise in temperatures, increasing cloud cover, and scattered rainfall—some of which will be thundery over parts of northwestern Saudi Arabia.

The detailed seasonal weather bulletin for the Arab region for 2026–2027 has been issued.

Weather Details for Each Region

Saudi Arabia, Arabian Gulf, and Arabian Peninsula

Summer heat breaks across the region, with cooler late‑night conditions in northern areas. Humidity remains high along coastal regions of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and Bahrain, with clouds appearing and dust‑raising winds in exposed areas of Riyadh and the Eastern Province.

Weather becomes unstable over northwestern Saudi Arabia—especially Al‑Jawf, Tabuk, Qurayyat, northern Hail, and parts of the Northern Borders—toward mid and late week, bringing thundery showers and occasional wind activity.

Summer heat breaks across many Gulf and Saudi regions, signaling an early onset of autumnal conditions. Temperatures will be around 38°C in Riyadh, 36°C in Kuwait, and 34°C in Baghdad.

Weather fluctuations increase progressively this month, especially over northern and northwestern Saudi Arabia, marking an early start to “Wasmi” autumn weather systems, which are expected to intensify around mid‑month and become more widespread and stronger.

Levant

The impact of the previous low‑pressure system gradually weakens, rainfall decreases, and temperatures rise noticeably as the Red Sea Trough extends toward the region. This leads to clear weather fluctuations by mid and late week, especially in Jordan and Palestine, with scattered showers and wind activity.

Jordan

Temperatures rise noticeably by mid and late week, making the weather warm during the day while remaining cool at night and early morning. Cloud cover increases mid and late week, with scattered showers—especially on Tuesday—accompanied by occasional wind activity.

Weather fluctuations renew toward the end of the week and intensify next week, ahead of strong rain events expected to begin gradually after mid‑month.

Syria

The influence of the current low‑pressure system weakens gradually, and temperatures rise mid‑week. Weather becomes unstable, especially in eastern Syria and parts of the coastal and interior regions, bringing scattered showers.

Weather fluctuations intensify clearly around mid‑month and become strong after mid‑month gradually.

Palestine

Temperatures rise mid and late week, bringing warm autumnal daytime weather and mild nighttime conditions, cooler in the mountains. Scattered showers are expected on Tuesday, especially over southern and central Palestine. Weather instability renews next week, with increasingly strong rain events after mid‑month.

Lebanon

The low‑pressure system gradually retreats, and temperatures rise mid and late week. Light scattered showers are expected in various areas during mid and late week.

Weather fluctuations intensify next week and become heavy after mid‑month gradually.

Iraq

Temperatures gradually break from summer levels, with continued weather instability and scattered thundery showers in some areas, alongside mild nighttime conditions. Weather fluctuations are expected to increase mid and late week, with thundery showers over northern and western regions. Strong rain events are expected to intensify around mid‑month and afterward.
