Arab Weather - The latest outputs of the weather maps at the Arab Weather Center indicate that the Kingdom will be affected during the coming night (Friday/Saturday night) by weather closer to a winter character, as there will be a noticeable decrease in temperatures and an increase in surface humidity levels in various regions.

In detail, a noticeably cold atmosphere is expected during the late night and dawn hours, especially over the mountainous highlands and eastern plains, with the appearance of large amounts of low clouds.

Fog is also expected to form over the high mountain peaks and some areas of the eastern plains, which may lead to a decrease in horizontal visibility in those areas, especially during the late night and early morning hours.

There is also a possibility of temporary local rainfall in limited areas, especially in the north of the Kingdom. It is advised to wear warmer clothes during the night hours and to be careful while driving in mountainous areas due to the possibility of fog formation and reduced horizontal visibility.

And God knows best.
