Arab Weather - Based on the latest data from what is called computer simulation, the weather systems in the northern hemisphere are adopting a winter pattern, as many regions are witnessing successive surges of polar air masses of very cold origin, one of which is expected to be in the coming days towards central and southern Europe, resulting in a strong air depression.

 

A strong low pressure system over central and southern Europe, accompanied by heavy rain and snow

 

In detail, God willing, the Azores high is expected to extend towards the northeastern Atlantic Ocean, resulting in a break in the polar jet stream towards central and southern Europe, reaching North Africa, specifically the Maghreb countries. God willing, this weather situation will result in the formation of a deep low pressure system that will bring heavy rain to low-lying areas, while the same weather system will result in heavy snowfall over mountain peaks, especially in Italy, Greece and the surrounding countries.

Scientifically, the weather systems in the Northern Hemisphere are linked to each other, as the relationship between the shape of the weather systems in southern Europe and the Maghreb countries is inverse. In order for the countries of the eastern Mediterranean basin to be affected by depressions and winter systems, a high must be centered over southwestern Europe and the Maghreb countries.

 

But in the current situation, the rush of cold winds towards the aforementioned regions leads to the displacement of warm winds towards the countries of the eastern Mediterranean, which results in a delay in rainfall and the dominance of high-pressure systems that prevent the advance of winter depressions towards the region.

 

The weather system does not bode well for any imminent change in the shape of weather systems, as the strong high pressure system continues to control the Levant and the Arabian Peninsula, and temperatures are higher than their average for this time of year.

 

We ask God to give us rain and not make us among the despairing.

 

And God knows best.
