Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Center said that the Kingdom will be affected, God willing, by successive weather depressions in the coming period, including Eid al-Fitr, as part of its being affected by the series of rainy conditions that Arab Weather called “Ghaith”, which will, God willing, lead to a great improvement in the performance of the rainy season.

 

A second-degree (normal) low-pressure system will affect the Kingdom on the eve of Eid, bringing cold and rainy winter weather.

During the night hours of Thursday/Friday, the Kingdom is expected to be gradually affected by a very cold and humid air mass associated with a second-degree low-pressure system, according to the scale of the intensity of low-pressure systems in Arab Weather. This will lead to a further decrease in temperatures and a noticeable change in the atmosphere to become cold and cloudy, with rainfall in many northern and central regions, extending to some southern highlands. This rainfall will be heavy at times, and may be accompanied by lightning, thunder, and hail showers. It will also be accompanied by the formation of dense fog over the high mountain peaks as a result of the passage of low clouds touching the ground.

 

Friday: The Kingdom will continue to be affected by cold and humid air currents and intermittent rain.

On Friday, the Kingdom will continue to be affected by the cold and humid air mass, with foggy, cold, and partly to mostly cloudy weather, with continued chances of rain in the northern and central regions, especially during the early morning hours and the Eid prayer period. These chances will gradually decrease during the afternoon and evening hours, and will later be limited to the far northern regions.

 

During the night hours of Friday/Saturday, the weather will be generally cold and partly cloudy, with a chance of rain showers in various areas during the late night and early morning hours, sometimes accompanied by thunderstorms.

.

Saturday, March 21, 2026: The second low-pressure system of the "Ghaith" rain event.

The Kingdom is secondly affected by the rainy weather depression "Ghaith", but it is concentrated more on the southern regions, and is of the second degree.

 

According to weather maps in Arab Weather, the Kingdom will be affected again on Saturday by another low-pressure system classified as a second-degree depression, especially in the evening hours. The weather will be cold and partly cloudy with rainfall in many areas, but it will be concentrated in the south of the Kingdom and may be accompanied by thunder and occasional hail showers, which will lead to an increased risk of flash floods in valleys and low-lying areas, God willing.

 

We ask God that the rains be rains of goodness and blessing.

 

And God knows best.
