Weather of Arabia - starting from Friday, south-easterly, dry, cold, moderate winds are blowing at times, and the wind speed increases to become active on Saturday and lasts for several days, and the winds are accompanied by remarkably strong gusts in the foothills of the western highlands, the Ghouri and Shafa Ghoriya regions, in addition to the Dead Sea It warns farmers and owners of greenhouses in the Jordan Valley about the danger of severe winds.

 

The reason is the doubling of the wind speed over the Dead Sea valleys, because the winds blow from the eastern side of the western front (a direction opposite to the normal behavior of the wind), where the eastern winds ascend towards the slopes of the western mountain heights, and descend very quickly towards the Jordan Valley and Dead Sea regions due to the reduction in these areas from The sea surface, and the coolness and dryness of the eastern winds, which makes them heavy in weight, and thus their intensity and speed doubles when they descend from the western slopes of the western mountains, where some peaks are more than 1,700 meters high, towards the Jordan Valley and the Dead Sea, whose height does not exceed -400 meters.

 

God knows.
