Arab Weather - Specialists at the Arab Weather Center are monitoring the atmospheric pressures over the North Pole, which directly control the movement of air masses and their flow towards lower latitudes. The weather system leads to the control of high-pressure air masses over the North Pole, which leads to the refraction and undulation of the polar jet stream, allowing polar waves to flow towards Europe and North America.

Polar waves flow into the Atlantic waters and great activity in storms in the Atlantic Ocean and surrounding countries

Arab Weather experts reported that as these cold polar waves flow towards the Atlantic Ocean, the cold air interacts with the warmer Atlantic waters, leading to a series of Atlantic storms causing significant fluctuations in the weather along the Atlantic coasts. These storms are expected to continue to affect weather patterns in the region for periods extending until the end of the month, accompanied by strong winds and heavy rains in various regions of northern and western Europe, specifically the Scandinavian countries, Ireland and the United Kingdom.

North America and southern Greenland are again under the influence of the cold polar air masses, where weather disturbances continue, and snow continues to fall in many areas, especially Canada and the eastern states, while other states far from water bodies are under severe cold and dry conditions without snowfall.

Storms extend to southwestern Europe, heavy rain and floods

According to the computer outputs, the jet stream wave does not stop at northern Europe and Atlantic storms only, but also leads to the expansion of storms towards southwestern Europe with very heavy rainfall and strong winds. The probability of strong thunderstorms is also increasing, which may be accompanied by large and harmful hail in some areas, and the effects of the storms are concentrated in Portugal, France and neighboring countries.

And God knows best.
