Arab Weather - The latest numerical computer models indicate that an upper air pressure system will continue to dominate the Kingdom over the coming days, with expectations of its intensification. This will impose stable conditions and act as a barrier against the advance of cold upper air troughs, which result in atmospheric instability. This is due to the nature of the weather systems prevailing in the Northern Hemisphere.

 

In detail, the Kingdom is affected by a high pressure system in the upper atmosphere, accompanied by an extremely hot air mass. Temperatures remain 4-6 degrees Celsius higher than usual. The weather will be hot in the north of the Kingdom and moderate in the summer resorts, while it will be extremely hot in the rest of the region, with maximum temperatures in the capital, Riyadh, ranging between 44 and 45 degrees Celsius.

 

Moderate weather in all northern regions, while it becomes warmer in the rest of the regions.

Despite the expected rise in daytime temperatures, the weather remains moderate across the northern regions and resorts at night. Elsewhere, nighttime temperatures are higher than previous nights, with the weather generally warm, with minimum temperatures ranging between 28 and 31 degrees Celsius.

 

And God knows best.
