Arab Weather - The weather forecast staff at the Arab Regional Weather Center indicated that the weather maps in the Arab Weather Center indicate an increase in Iraq being affected by the hot air mass on Monday, with some thunderstorms in the forefront of Iraq being affected on Tuesday and Wednesday by a rainy condition that is classified as strong by air instability, including Most of the regions of the Republic, including the capital, Baghdad, and its effects are concentrated in the northern regions, which calls for attention from the dangers of the formation of torrential rains.

In the details, Iraq is increasingly affected by a relatively hot air mass to a lane, so that another noticeable rise occurs in the measured temperatures, so that they are higher than their rates for this time of the year by about 12-14 degrees Celsius, and the weather is relatively hot in the northern and western regions and hot in the rest of the regions with Maximum temperatures approaching the end of the thirties in the center and south of the country.

Gradually, during daylight hours, some unstable weather conditions arise in parts of the northern and western regions, where quantities of clouds appear at different heights, and the opportunity is ripe for thunderstorms of rain to fall on parts of those regions. Others, and at the same time, are associated with great activity on the surface wind speed that raises dust in the context of the effect of thunderclouds.

A strong state of atmospheric instability begins in the northern and western regions on Tuesday during the day and expands with the night hours

And the weather forecast staff at the Arab Regional Weather Center stated that the latest outputs of computer numerical models indicate that Iraq was affected, on Tuesday, by a state that can be described as strong atmospheric instability resulting from the approach of an air depression and a cold air mass from the west in conjunction with a surface extension of the so-called Red Sea depression, which It pushes warm air currents in the layers of the atmosphere close to the surface of the earth, and the state of atmospheric instability begins during the daytime hours from the northern and western regions, where thunder showers of rain fall, especially in the afternoon. Crossing thunderclouds.

With the evening and night hours of Tuesday/Wednesday, the state of atmospheric instability intensifies, and the impact of thunderclouds expands to include large areas of Iraq, including the various northern governorates in addition to the central regions and the capital, Baghdad, accompanied by thundershowers of varying intensity of rain, sometimes heavy and accompanied by showers of hail. Which requires attention from the dangers of sudden torrential rains in the northern regions.

A cold air front crosses Iraq on Wednesday, with which the frequency of unstable weather conditions increases, and towering cumulus clouds that bring heavy to very heavy rain

The weather forecasters at the Arab Regional Weather Center said that the numerical simulation models indicate that there will be a significant and clear increase in the state of air instability on Wednesday, to become severe in some areas, as Iraq crosses a cold air front coming from the west with the continued presence of the Red Sea depression from the south. The atmospheric situation causes the formation of tall cumulonimbus clouds that grow to high levels in the atmosphere.

This type of cumulonimbus clouds results in heavy to very heavy rains in most regions of Iraq, including the capital, Baghdad, and all northern regions, with the occurrence of strong thunderstorms and heavy and accumulated showers of hail, with the formation of torrents and a rise in the water level in many Iraqi cities, as it warns seriously from the dangers of the formation of torrential rains in the northern regions due to the mountainous nature that these areas acquire.

Serious and important recommendations from the Arab weather during the impact of this state of atmospheric instability:

  • Pay attention and be fully prepared for the dangers of sudden and sweeping torrents, especially in the northern regions.
  • Keeping away and not being in the stomachs of valleys, streams of torrents, reefs, and usual water gathering areas, including residents of poetry houses.
  • Pay attention to the intensity of the downward wind speed during the passage of thunderclouds
  • Take shelter inside buildings when lightning strikes.
  • Attention from the dangers of soil and rock erosion in the high mountain elevations in the northern regions of Iraq
