Arab Weather - The southern regions of Jordan were affected today, Thursday, by a strong low-pressure system classified as a fourth degree, as these regions witnessed heavy to very heavy rainfall since the early hours of dawn continuously, which led to the formation of torrential floods and the cutting off of a number of vital roads.

Rainfall amounts, according to Arab Weather measurements, were remarkable, exceeding 100 millimeters in the Tafila Governorate, while reaching about 95 millimeters in some areas of the Karak Governorate, amid continued rainfall until the time of preparing this news.

Rainfall is expected to continue in parts of Karak and Tafila governorates during the coming hours, and may extend until Friday morning, increasing the likelihood of flash floods and rising water levels in valleys and low-lying areas.

The relevant authorities urge citizens to exercise caution, stay away from floodplains and valleys, and avoid attempting to cross flooded roads. They also advise staying updated on weather forecasts and adhering to safety guidelines issued by the Civil Defense to ensure everyone's safety.
