Arab Weather - Meteorologists at the Arab Weather Regional Center reported that the latest computer simulation readings indicate that Iraq will be affected by unstable weather conditions in the coming days, accompanied by the possibility of thunderstorms and rain showers in many areas, particularly the western regions of the country.

The following is the expected weather conditions in Iraq during the Eid holiday, God willing:

Sunday (the first day of Eid, astronomically speaking): Temperatures will remain 9-11 degrees Celsius warmer than usual. The weather will be relatively hot and generally dry, with some medium and high clouds. The winds will be moderate to brisk southeasterly, causing dust storms in several parts of the country. The weather will be dusty to varying degrees.

Monday and Tuesday (the second and third days of Eid, astronomically): The weather will be relatively hot and generally dry, with the appearance of medium and high clouds. At night, the weather will be warmer than usual and will tend to moderate during the late night hours and dawn.

Chance of thunderstorms concentrated in the western regions

Medium and high-altitude clouds are expected on Sunday and Monday, bringing with them the potential for scattered thunderstorms. Some of these showers could be heavy, accompanied by hail and strong winds that stir up dust.

And God knows best.
