Winter is Not Over | Sharp Weather Fluctuations Begin Friday with Strong Return of Winter During the Second Week of the Month

WASM- The Kingdom is affected by "sharp" weather fluctuations that result in high activity in wind speeds, strong gusts, and dense dust on Sunday and Monday, with significant temperature variations exceeding 15-20 degrees Celsius almost daily, which increases the likelihood of seasonal illnesses and severe damage to the agricultural sector.


Dense dust, strong winds, and very sharp temperature variations..
Strong winds are expected to activate on Friday coinciding with dust storms in desert areas with a noticeable drop in temperatures Friday night, making the atmosphere cold and wintry. Then temperatures will rise on Sunday to approach 27 degrees Celsius in the capital and mountains coinciding with dust-raising winds in various areas.

Temperatures will drop to approach only 5 degrees Celsius on Monday/Tuesday night and during the coming week's days, with a cold polar air mass positioning itself over the southeastern and eastern parts of the European continent.

A severely cold polar air mass positioning itself over Turkey and southeastern Europe..
A "severely cold" polar air mass, unusual compared to this time of year, is positioning itself over the eastern and southeastern parts of Europe and gradually extending toward Turkey and Greece during the end of next week, which will increase the intensity of weather disturbances over Jordan and the eastern Mediterranean, with increased chances of rainfall showers.

Monitoring a "delayed" storm coinciding with an unusual polar wave over the eastern Mediterranean..
As a result of rising temperatures coinciding with the presence of an unusual polar air mass over southern Europe, and due to extreme atmospheric circulation that started from western United States and California then the Atlantic Ocean, various regions of the world are affected by extreme and unusual weather conditions, including strong storm activity and early heat waves. It is expected that an unusual winter storm will approach the eastern Mediterranean region during the second week of the month, and all details will be issued gradually as the time period approaches.

Tips and Guidelines..
WASM advises caution regarding "very sharp" temperature fluctuations exceeding 15-20 degrees Celsius during short hours, starting from Friday through Monday on an almost daily basis, and continuing to wear winter clothing to avoid colds and seasonal illnesses, and being careful about crops, and not planting any summer crops during the coming period in mountainous areas with expectations of delayed and unusual "cold- polar waves" coinciding with the occurrence of black frost during the second week of the month.

As a result of extreme weather conditions expected during the coming period, WASM advises preparing for these conditions, especially regarding increased chances of "floods and sudden torrents," significant temperature variations, and delayed snow falling on mountainous areas.

Jordan is usually affected by such conditions at this time, but it is expected that these fluctuations will be stronger than usual as a result of extreme atmospheric circulation in various parts of the world.
