Less than one degree Celsius separates the capital, Amman, from breaking the previous record set in 2023.

Arab Weather - After the issuance of official reports from Amman Civil Airport, located east of the capital, at exactly twelve o'clock today, Wednesday 8/13/2025, maximum temperatures of 43°C were recorded, officially less than one degree Celsius separating it from being the highest temperature in the history of Amman's records, surpassing the absolute highest record of 43.7°C, recorded during the historic heat wave in August 2023, and we are monitoring around the clock at the Arab Weather Center the maximum temperatures for today, which will be issued by official stations in the coming hours.

According to the latest weather updates, the scorching center of the unprecedentedly hot air mass is positioned near the Kingdom, causing the heat wave to reach record levels for the sixth consecutive day. There are fears that several previous temperature records set by monitoring stations in the Kingdom could be broken.

The unstable weather is expected to continue after the afternoon hours, accompanied by the possibility of dust storms and downward winds, in addition to some thunderstorms. The weather will turn to an unprecedented hot and dry weather in most areas, with temperatures approaching the mid-forties in many Jordanian villages and cities, including parts of the capital, Amman, with the possibility of temperatures reaching nearly 50°C in some areas of the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba Governorate.

And God knows best.
