Arab Weather - Meteorologists at the Arab Weather Center said that the latest computer simulation results indicate that strong winds will intensify during the middle and end of the week, accompanied by extremely hot weather in Iraq and various Gulf countries, coinciding with an increase in dust and suspended dust levels in the atmosphere.

Early warning: Al-Bawarih winds herald dusty conditions of varying intensity, peaking between noon and afternoon.

According to preliminary indicators, Al-Bawarih winds are expected to begin strongly in southern Iraq and Kuwait, reaching Bahrain, Qatar, and the Arabian Gulf. The northerly or northwesterly winds, known as Al-Bawarih, will be active in these areas, accompanied by strong gusts reaching approximately 70 km/h, especially in southern Iraq and Kuwait. These winds will stir up dust and may form dust waves and reduce horizontal visibility. Al-Bawarih winds are also expected to blow in eastern Saudi Arabia, reaching the United Arab Emirates and parts of the Sultanate of Oman, but at a lesser intensity than in other countries. However, they will lead to a general dusty atmosphere.

What are the Bawareh winds?

Al-Bawarih is a dry, hot, and dusty northwesterly wind that blows across many countries in the Arabian Gulf. It is known locally as "Al-Bawarih Winds." The intensity of Al-Bawarih winds varies from year to year, and can sometimes be severe, causing significant changes in the weather, even disrupting some aspects of life in different areas.

Arab Weather advises caution against the risk of increased dust and dirt in the atmosphere in many areas, and the potential impact this will have on patients with respiratory and eye conditions, as well as impaired horizontal vision.

And God knows best.
