Arab Weather - The latest outputs from the numerical models processed by the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that Iraq will be affected by an extremely hot air mass in the coming days. Therefore, temperatures are expected to rise further, and the weather will be extremely hot in general, with highs around the mid-forties Celsius in most regions, particularly in the central and southern regions, including the capital, Baghdad.

Clouds will appear at medium and high altitudes, interspersed with cumulus clouds over the northern mountains. Local showers accompanied by thunderstorms are likely in parts of these regions, accompanied by light to moderate winds, which will sometimes be active and cause dust storms, especially in the southern regions.

Important recommendations from Arab Weather during the expected hot weather:

  • Avoid direct exposure to sunlight, especially during the afternoon and evening hours.
  • Drink plenty of water and fluids to replace the loss from sweating.
  • Avoid leaving disinfectants or flammable materials inside vehicles.
  • Do not leave children or pets inside the car, even for a short time.
  • Wear light, loose clothing, and cover your head with a hat or umbrella when going out.
  • Be careful not to light fires or throw cigarette butts in grassy areas to avoid fires.

And God knows best.
