Arab Weather - The latest numerical model outputs from the Meteorology Department indicate that extremely hot weather is expected to persist across the Arabian Gulf region over the coming days, coinciding with the continued emergence of unstable weather conditions in some areas, particularly in Saudi Arabia, and the occurrence of strong winds that will raise dust and sand in some areas. Details:

Temperatures rise in Kuwait, with active winds causing dust and sandstorms.

Temperatures are expected to rise significantly in the coming days, with the weather in Kuwait expected to be extremely hot during the day and relatively hot at night, with high temperatures exceeding the mid-40s in some areas. Medium and high clouds are expected, which could produce scattered showers, sometimes accompanied by thunder.

Moderate to brisk southwesterly winds will blow on Saturday, accompanied by cumulus clouds and strong gusts reaching 70 km/h, causing dust and sandstorms and the formation and propagation of dust waves. The weather will be generally dusty.

Extremely hot weather in Qatar and Bahrain, with temperatures in the 40s and fog at night in parts of Qatar.

The weather in Bahrain and Qatar is expected to be extremely hot during the day in the coming days, with temperatures reaching 40 degrees Celsius in both countries. The weather will also be relatively hot, humid and humid at night, with the appearance and dispersal of some medium and high clouds, and winds of variable direction, light to moderate speed, sometimes active. Moist marine air currents will also flow, causing surface humidity levels to rise, which will double the feeling of heat and discomfort during the day and night.

Extremely hot weather in the UAE, with temperatures exceeding the mid-forties.

The weather is expected to remain extremely hot in the UAE during the coming days during daylight hours, with temperatures set to rise to the mid-forties in some inland areas. The weather will be relatively hot at night, with moderate northwesterly winds blowing, sometimes active, causing dust storms in inland and exposed areas.

Extremely hot weather in Oman and an unusual absence of rain chances in the mountain ranges.

God willing, the weather in the Sultanate of Oman is expected to be semi-summery and extremely hot, with temperatures reaching the 40s over many inland areas. The weather will also be relatively hot at night, tending to be moderate in some areas, while becoming pleasant in the mountainous highlands, with high humidity levels in coastal areas.

It is noteworthy that the Sultanate is witnessing an unusual absence of spring rains due to the subtropical high pressure system controlling the Sultanate's atmosphere.

Hot to very hot weather in Saudi Arabia with active winds causing dust and sandstorms, including Riyadh.

God willing, the weather in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia during the coming days is expected to be moderate to relatively hot in the southwestern highlands, and generally hot to very hot during the daytime hours, with temperatures reaching the forties level in the capital, Riyadh, and many regions. The weather will also be pleasant at night in the southwestern highlands and northwestern regions, and relatively hot in the rest of the regions, with the appearance of clouds at different altitudes. Temperatures are expected to reach the mid-40s in some regions in the coming days, specifically the eastern regions.

Thunderstorms are expected to continue forming over parts of the southwestern highlands, Hail, Qassim and the Northern Borders in the coming days, accompanied by heavy thunderstorms at times, causing valleys to flow, with variable winds of moderate speed, accompanied by strong gusts exceeding 70 km/h, stirring up dust and sand, which may reach the level of sandstorms within the framework of thunderstorm activity, God willing.

And God knows best.
