Arab Weather - On Friday and Saturday, May 1, 2026 and May 2, 2026, warm weather will prevail in the Kingdom in various regions, with temperatures being higher than their general averages for this time of year, making the weather generally suitable for activities and requiring the wearing of spring clothes, especially in the Jordan Valley and the Dead Sea region.

According to computer maps issued by the Arab Weather Center, God willing, the Kingdom and the region are expected to be affected, starting from Sunday evening and night/Monday, by a surge of cold air leading to a noticeable drop in temperatures, and its effects will extend until the middle of next week.

In detail, nighttime temperatures are expected to drop below 10 degrees Celsius in most areas, especially in desert regions and high mountainous areas, leading to noticeably cold weather during the night and early morning hours.

Forecasts indicate that the weather will require a return to wearing winter clothes, especially during the night and early morning hours, with the need to use heating in some areas, especially with temperatures dropping to levels closer to winter, even though we are at the end of spring.

Therefore, it is advisable not to rush into reducing clothing, focusing on protecting children and the elderly from temperature fluctuations, in order to avoid colds and seasonal flu.

We ask God for safety for everyone.
