Jordan is experiencing a clear state of temperature fluctuations at the beginning of May, reflecting the transitional nature of the month, as cold air masses continue to compete with warm ones in the region's atmosphere.

According to weather data, temperatures are expected to rise significantly on Saturday, May 2 , with relatively hot weather prevailing in various regions, with maximum temperatures approaching 28 to 30 degrees Celsius , in a scene closer to early summer weather.

But this weather will not last long, as forecasts indicate a relatively cold air mass will rush in starting on Sunday, May 3 , causing a sharp and noticeable drop in temperatures, with the maximum falling to around 16–18 degrees Celsius , which will bring the weather back to a character closer to autumn or even some days of winter .

The effect is not limited to daytime hours, but the cold extends to nighttime hours, as several consecutive nights are expected to witness remarkably cold weather, with minimum temperatures dropping to approximately 7–8 degrees Celsius , which necessitates wearing warm clothes and coats and using heating devices , especially during the night and early morning hours.

These sharp fluctuations in temperature are a common feature during the month of May in the Levant, as a result of the continuous change in the sources of air masses between warm ones coming from the south and cold ones coming from the north, which leads to a clear and rapid variation in weather conditions.

It is advisable to follow weather updates regularly, given the nature of this period, which is characterized by thermal instability, and to avoid wearing too much clothing despite the temporary warm periods.
