Arab Weather - The latest satellite images within the Arab Weather app show the development of a massive cumulus cloud over the Makkah region. Wide areas are experiencing varying levels of rainfall, including Taif and the Grand Mosque area.

The cumulus cloud's impact is primarily concentrated in the areas southwest of Makkah Al-Mukarramah, accompanied by heavy rainfall, lightning, thunder, hail, and strong winds.

Some of the cloud effects affect the city of Jeddah?

Satellite images indicate the beginning of the impact of a cumulus cloud over eastern parts of Jeddah. Some areas of Jeddah are likely to experience light rainfall, with active winds resulting from the downdrafts accompanying the development of cumulus clouds, which could stir up dust waves.

It is worth noting that this rain coincides with the Kingdom's celebration of the 95th Saudi National Day. May God make it a rain of goodness and blessings for everyone.
