Summer showers accompanied by thunder are expected in four Arab countries over the weekend.

Arab Weather - Analysis from the Arab Weather Center indicates that large parts of the southwest Arabian Peninsula will be affected by summer weather fluctuations in the coming days, characterized by the development of cumulus clouds and localized rain showers, sometimes accompanied by thunderstorms and hail.

Thunderstorms possible in 3 Saudi regions this weekend.

Meteorologists at Arab Weather reported the possibility of cumulus clouds forming during the afternoon and evening hours over various parts of the highlands of Jazan and Asir. This is due to the influence of moist winds, which collide with the mountainous terrain to create a suitable environment for the emergence of thunderstorms and varying showers of rain. It is also not unlikely that these clouds will be accompanied by active descending winds and hail showers in some limited areas.

Daily chances of rain in the highlands of Oman and the UAE.

In the Sultanate of Oman, cumulus clouds are expected to continue forming over parts of the Al Hajar Mountains, extending to include some border mountains in the eastern Emirates. These clouds will be accompanied by thunderstorms, sometimes heavy in some areas, and downward winds may accompany these clouds, leading to a temporary reduction in horizontal visibility.

Yemen: Continuous seasonal rains in the highlands

In Yemen, the chances of rainfall remain over the western and southwestern highlands, due to the extended influence of the humid mass and the activity of the monsoon winds. Cumulus clouds are expected to increase during the afternoon and evening periods, which could lead to thunderstorms of varying intensity, with the possibility of hail in the high mountainous areas.

These weather conditions are typical of summer in the southwest of the Arabian Peninsula, where the southwest monsoon plays a pivotal role in supplying moisture to the mountainous regions, leading to the daily formation of cumulus clouds in some areas.

Arab Weather recommends following weather updates through official bulletins and daily reports, especially for residents of mountainous areas or those using elevated roads during the afternoon and evening hours.
