Arab Weather - Computer simulation maps at the Arab Weather Center indicate that the Kingdom and the Levant will be affected by a cooler and more humid air mass starting from the evening hours of Friday, which will lead to a clear decrease in temperatures and their return to the low twenties Celsius in various Jordanian cities during the daytime, and even lower during the nighttime, which necessitates wearing warmer clothes.

In detail, during the day on Friday, temperatures will decrease and the weather will be moderate. However, during the afternoon and evening hours, a clear increase in the speed of the westerly winds is expected, which may be accompanied by strong gusts at times, reaching speeds of up to about 100 km/h in the desert areas, the eastern plains, and the desert roads, which will lead to dust storms in the south and east of the Kingdom, including on the desert roads, crossings, and border crossings.

During the night hours of Friday/Saturday, there will be a clear drop in temperatures, with an increase in surface humidity levels, resulting in cold and unsettled weather ranging from partly cloudy to cloudy with low clouds, with the possibility of fog forming over some high mountain peaks.

On Saturday, May 16, the cooler air mass will continue to affect the region, leading to a further drop in temperatures. Daytime temperatures will reach the low twenties Celsius, with low clouds appearing intermittently, resulting in pleasant weather during the day and cold weather at night.

During these conditions, it is advisable to wear warmer clothing, especially for residents of mountainous areas, while being mindful of temperature fluctuations and the increased likelihood of contracting seasonal illnesses.

And God knows best.
