Arab Weather - We at the Arab Weather Center are monitoring dynamic changes in the atmosphere, represented by the strengthening of the tropical high pressure system over the Arabian Peninsula, coinciding with the onset of seasonal rains in tropical and subtropical regions.

The Arabian Peninsula High is intensifying and the rainy season is starting in India and the Bay of Bengal. What does this portend?

Arab Weather experts say that the changes occurring in the atmosphere in the tropical and subtropical latitudes are normal for this time of year, as the tropical high begins during the spring season to gradually intensify in the tropical and subtropical latitudes, and its impact increases more as we approach summer due to the apparent movement of the sun towards the Tropic of Cancer before it is completely perpendicular to it on the day of the summer solstice. Consequently, this movement increases the solar radiation falling on these latitudes, which increases the process of heating the Earth’s surface, which is considered the fuel for the growth of thermal depressions in the Arabian Peninsula, and this may herald an early start to summer in the tropical and subtropical latitudes.

Monsoon rains also begin to become active in the tropical and subtropical latitudes due to the gradual extension and development of the ITCZ, which is considered the primary cause after God’s will of monsoon rains in those regions.

The impact of this is evident on weather maps, which indicate a significant and significant rise in temperatures in the Arabian Gulf, approaching 40°C in most Gulf countries and exceeding that in various regions of the Sultanate of Oman and the UAE by the end of this week.

Weather maps also show a strong onset of monsoon and tropical conditions in the Bay of Bengal and parts of India. These areas are expected to be affected in the coming days by rainfall, bringing thunderstorms to large areas of the Bay of Bengal and neighboring countries, including parts of India and Bangladesh.
