Saudi Arabia - National Center of Meteorology | Installing automatic weather monitoring stations in the Two Holy Mosques and holy sites in order to increase geographical coverage and monitor weather phenomena.

Weather of Arabia - The National Center of Meteorology in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia said, through a tweet it posted on its Twitter account, that modern automatic weather monitoring stations have been installed in the Two Holy Mosques and the holy sites.

The desired benefit is due to an increase in geographical coverage, an increase in the accuracy of information, and support in monitoring possible weather phenomena, coinciding with the preparations for this year's Hajj season 1444 AH.

Meteorological stations are among the essential matters in meteorological operations, as the stations record different weather elements at specific times, and meteorological stations record temperature, amount of rain, horizontal visibility, wind direction and speed, atmospheric pressure value, dew point and humidity.
