Jordan: As the heat wave intensifies, temperatures in Amman reach their highest levels since last October.

Arab Weather - The latest outputs of weather forecast models processed at the Arab Weather Center indicate that the Kingdom will be increasingly affected by a warm air mass accompanied by a high pressure system in the upper atmosphere during the coming days. Therefore, temperatures will rise further, becoming more than 10 degrees Celsius above their average. Therefore, the weather will be generally warm and spring-like, and warmer in the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and the city of Aqaba, with clouds appearing at medium and high altitudes.

A warm African air mass accompanied by a high pressure system in the upper atmosphere will increase its impact on the Kingdom in the coming days.

In detail, the Kingdom will be increasingly affected at the end of this week and the beginning of next week by a warm and dry African air mass accompanied by high atmospheric pressure in the upper layers of the atmosphere. Therefore, temperatures will rise again to be 10-12 degrees Celsius higher than their average for this time of year. The weather will be moderate to warm in general, tending to be hot during the afternoon and evening hours in the low-lying areas, while it will be relatively hot to hot in the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea and the city of Aqaba, with the appearance of medium and high clouds on Friday.

Temperatures exceed the mid-twenties in the capital, Amman, and are considered the warmest since last October.

God willing, temperatures are expected to exceed the mid-twenties Celsius in many parts of the Kingdom, including the eastern neighborhoods of the capital, Amman, over the coming days, especially on Saturday and Sunday. These temperatures are expected to be the highest since last October, with temperatures expected to be in the mid-thirties Celsius in the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba throughout those days.

Temperatures rise and the weather cools down at night.

God willing, nighttime temperatures are expected to rise compared to previous nights, and the weather will be less cold than it has been in recent weeks. It will be pleasant in the evening and early night hours, but will tend to be cold in the late night and early morning hours, especially in the highlands and eastern plains.

Southeasterly winds blow during the influence of the warm air mass.

God willing, as a result of the distribution of atmospheric pressure in the region, southeasterly to easterly winds are expected to blow across the Kingdom, light to moderate in speed, sometimes active, and causing dust storms when active.

What is causing the warm African air mass to rush into the Kingdom?

The scientific reason for the warm air mass moving toward the Kingdom is the flow of cold winds accompanying a low-pressure system across large parts of the European continent, reaching northern Africa, including northern Tunisia, Algeria, and Libya. This situation pushes warm winds and high air pressure eastward, where they settle over the region, including the Kingdom and the Arabian Peninsula.

And God knows best.
