Arab Weather - The latest satellite images from the Arab Weather Center indicate the activity of thunderclouds in the highlands of the southwest of the Kingdom, as the lightning radar shows the presence of dense and successive flashes of lightning during the activity of thunderclouds.

 

As thunderstorms multiply over parts of the Asir and Al-Baha highlands, and south of Taif, it is not unlikely that they will also extend towards the Makkah Al-Mukarramah region and may reach the holy sites, accompanied by thunderstorms of varying intensity, accompanied by hail and sudden winds.

God knows best.
