Chances of thunderstorms starting on the day of Arafah

The latest outputs of our computer simulation systems for rain forecasts in Arab weather agree that the southwestern sector of the Kingdom will be affected as of July 16 by weather turbulence that can be described as strong, bringing with it heavy rains to the heights of Jazan, Asir and Al Baha. On the regions of Makkah and Taif from the day of Arafat until the 13th of Dhul-Hijjah.

It is expected that convective thunderstorms will multiply and rain will begin in the eastern parts of Makkah and extend to Arafat, Mina and Muzdalifah. It is not excluded that part of those thunderstorms will extend towards the Holy Mosque with the activity of the dusty wind movement.
