Arab Weather - God willing, and according to the latest outputs of advanced computer simulations, a significant rise in temperatures is expected, with temperatures exceeding their average for this time of year by about 7-9 degrees Celsius. The weather will be extremely hot, with maximum temperatures approaching 50 degrees Celsius on several days this week in the desert and southern regions of Iraq, especially the city of Basra and its surroundings, due to the location of the blazing center above those areas in particular. Winds will be variable in direction to northwesterly, with moderate speed.

Baghdad is set to experience temperatures exceeding the mid-40s Celsius.

Based on the numerical model outputs, the capital, Baghdad, is not far from the direct impact of the extremely hot air mass. Baghdad is expected to initially record maximum temperatures ranging between 45 and 47 degrees Celsius amid extremely hot conditions.

A significant rise in night temperatures

With increased solar heating and the Earth's surface storing large amounts of thermal energy, nighttime (minimum) temperatures are expected to rise significantly, with the lowest temperature during the day reaching 30 degrees Celsius in Baghdad, recorded shortly after sunrise. Consequently, the weather will be relatively hot during the night hours, especially during the first part of the night, while tending to be moderate in the north and west of the country.

And God knows best.
