Arab Weather - The Kingdom has been affected over the past few days by an unusually cold wave for this time of year, with a significant and noticeable drop in temperatures, several degrees Celsius below average. Significantly cold conditions prevailed across the country, prompting the use of heating and the wearing of winter clothing, even though we are nearing the end of spring.

In contrast, weather maps in Arab Weather show that the atmosphere will gradually and progressively recover starting from Thursday, as a relatively warmer air mass approaches the Kingdom during the weekend, which will cause a qualitative shift in temperatures, moving from winter weather to spring weather, and perhaps at some times reaching levels closer to the beginnings of summer.

the details:

Thursday, May 7, 2026:
Temperatures are expected to rise, becoming close to their seasonal averages. The weather will be cool in the morning, turning mild and spring-like during the afternoon across the Kingdom. Maximum temperatures will reach the twenties Celsius in most Jordanian cities, after not exceeding 14-15 degrees Celsius in recent days. Nights will remain cool, but less so than previous nights.

Friday and Saturday:
The Kingdom is affected by a relatively warm air mass moving in from the south, accompanied by a high-pressure system in the upper atmosphere, leading to generally stable weather conditions. A further and noticeable rise in temperatures is expected, exceeding the average for this time of year.

The weather will be warm during the afternoon and evening hours, and relatively hot on Saturday, with temperatures reaching the high twenties Celsius in various Jordanian cities, while exceeding the thirtieth Celsius mark in the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and the city of Aqaba.

And God knows best.
