Thunderstorms were observed in Makkah and Taif, reaching parts of Jeddah, accompanied by showers of varying intensity of rain and hail.

Arab Weather - The latest satellite images from the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate the development of cumulonimbus clouds in the western regions of the Kingdom, specifically north of Taif and parts of Mecca, extending to include neighborhoods of Jeddah. The cumulonimbus clouds are accompanied by rainfall of varying intensity, accompanied by hail and high surface wind speeds.

In the coming hours, cumulonimbus clouds are expected to increase over several parts of the western part of the Kingdom, particularly Taif and Makkah. These areas are expected to experience thunderstorms, which may be heavy at times, accompanied by hail, flooding, and torrential rains, especially in low-lying areas and mountain slopes.

And God knows best.
