Arab Weather - The latest numerical model readings from the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that Iraq will be increasingly affected by a Khamaseen depression on Thursday, accompanied by a hot and dry air mass. This will cause temperatures to rise significantly to the 40s across large areas of the country, along with active surface winds that will stir up dust in some areas.

 

The Khamaseen depression is centered in western Iraq on Thursday, and the influence of the hot air mass is intensifying.

God willing, the Khamaseen depression is expected to move southwest of Iraq on Thursday, deepening the influence of the hot air mass. As a result, temperatures will rise further, reaching levels well above their average for this time of year.
The weather will be hot to extremely hot, with temperatures reaching the 40s in many areas. The winds will be brisk southwesterly, causing dust storms, especially in the western regions of Iraq.

 

Iraq will continue to be affected by the Khamasin depression on Thursday/Friday night.

During the night hours of Thursday/Friday, Iraq will continue to be affected by the Khamaseen depression, with nighttime temperatures expected to rise significantly compared to previous nights. The weather will be relatively hot during the night hours, particularly in the central and southern regions of the country.

Winds will be moderate southeasterly to northwesterly, sometimes active, and accompanied by strong gusts that will stir up dust and sand, especially in the west.

 

And God knows best.
