A tropical depression has been detected in the Arabian Sea. Will it affect the Arab countries?

Arab Weather - The latest satellite images and analyses from the National Multi-Hazard Early Warning Centre in the Sultanate of Oman show that a tropical depression is being observed southeast of the Arabian Sea, currently centered at 66.5° east longitude and 10.7° north latitude, with wind speeds around its centre estimated at between 31 and 50 km/h (17 knots).

Analysis of weather data shows that the tropical depression is still forming and moving slowly west or northwestward within the Arabian Sea, with no clear indications yet of its rapid development into a stronger tropical system within the next few hours.

According to the Arab Weather app, the effects of this tropical system are not expected to affect any Arab country over the next 48 hours, as most of its impacts remain confined to the Arabian Sea, far from the Omani and Yemeni coasts for now.

The Arab Weather forecast team will continue to monitor the developments of the tropical depression as they develop, noting that the nature of tropical systems can sometimes change rapidly, which necessitates constant monitoring of weather developments from official sources.

And God knows best.
