Arab Weather – The latest readings from numerical models, analysis of weather maps, and forecasts issued by the National Center for Meteorology indicate that the first week of Ramadan 2026 will witness generally stable weather in most regions, with continued variations in temperatures and wind activity in several areas of the Kingdom.

A clear temperature difference between day and night

The data shows that temperatures will be relatively warm during the daytime in most areas, while the weather will tend to be cold at night, especially in the northern regions, as a result of the daily temperature difference related to the nature of the air masses prevailing during this period of the transitional season.

Are there any rain events expected during the first week?

According to current data, there are no indications that the Kingdom will be affected by significant or widespread rainfall during the first week of Ramadan, as the chances of precipitation – if it occurs – remain limited, localized, and not impactful on a large scale.

Active winds and intermittent dust storms

Weather maps also indicate frequent activity in surface wind speed, starting from the northern and western regions, and gradually extending towards the center and east, which may lead to dust and sandstorms and a temporary decrease in horizontal visibility, especially in open areas and on highways.
