Arab Weather - The latest satellite images from the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate the onset of cumulonimbus activity over the Al Hajar Heights in the Sultanate of Oman, especially the central Al Hajar. These thunderstorms will be accompanied by showers of rain, sometimes heavy and accompanied by hail, which will lead to the flow of valleys and ravines and the descent of waterfalls. The same weather conditions will extend to parts of the southern Emirates in the coming hours.

 

Thunderstorms are also accompanied by what are called downdrafts, which lead to the formation of temporary, locally influential dust waves.

 

Thunderstorms in several areas of southwestern Saudi Arabia in the coming hours.

Cumulus clouds will increase during the afternoon and evening hours over the extreme southwestern highlands of the Kingdom, including the highlands of Jazan, Asir, and Al-Baha. They are likely to extend, to a lesser extent, to the highlands of the Makkah region, especially Taif, with a chance of thunderstorms. Thunderstorms will be more intense over the highlands of Jazan and Asir, accompanied by strong thunderstorms and heavy hail.

 

And God knows best.
