Important: The first autumn depression in the Mediterranean forms on Tuesday, bringing heavy rains to more than five countries.

Arab Weather - The latest weather maps from Arab Weather, which simulate the movement of air masses and low-pressure systems, indicate the formation of a low-pressure system in the Mediterranean Sea late Tuesday. This is the first low-pressure system in the Mediterranean since the beginning of autumn, meteorologically speaking.

A low-pressure system is forming in the western Mediterranean, affecting more than five countries.

As a cold air mass sweeps across northwestern Europe toward the warm waters of the western Mediterranean, a relatively deep low pressure system is expected to form as a result. This is due to the collision of cold winds coming from Europe with the warm waters of the Mediterranean, coinciding with the sweep of warm, humid winds from the south.

High clouds and heavy rains are expected in several countries.

As previously mentioned, cold winds from Europe are expected to meet the warm waters of the Mediterranean, along with the influx of huge amounts of water vapor from the south. This will ignite cumulus clouds in the western Mediterranean, which are expected to develop rapidly and bring heavy to very heavy rains to several parts of the countries bordering the western and central Mediterranean, including parts of northern Algeria and Morocco, parts of Tunisia, and the countries of southern Europe.

As the low pressure system moves northeastward late Tuesday night and into the early hours of Wednesday morning, it is expected to affect large parts of Italy, France, Austria, Croatia, and even southern and southeastern Germany, bringing heavy rainfall to large parts of southern and central Europe.

On Wednesday, heavy rain, hail, and thunderstorms are expected across southern and central Europe, raising the risk of flash floods in those areas. The low pressure system will also be accompanied by sudden, strong winds.
