Arab Weather - According to the latest weather map updates reflected in the temperatures in the Arab Weather app, the center of an unprecedentedly scorching air mass will be positioned near the Kingdom tomorrow, Wednesday, August 13, 2025. This will lead to the heat wave continuing for the sixth consecutive day, reaching record levels, with the possibility of new temperatures being recorded at several monitoring stations.

Arab Weather app: Temperatures in the mid-40s Celsius in several areas and may reach 50 in the Jordan Valley.

The application also predicts that temperatures will rise to more than 12 degrees Celsius above normal, with the weather turning into an unprecedentedly hot and dry weather in most parts of the Kingdom. Temperatures are expected to approach the mid-forties in many villages and cities, including parts of the capital, Amman, and may reach around 50 degrees Celsius in some areas of the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba Governorate.

As the day progresses, the Kingdom will be affected again by a state of atmospheric instability, which increases the number of medium and high clouds. During the afternoon and evening hours, the opportunity arises for the development of cumulus clouds in random areas, especially in the desert and eastern plains, accompanied by thunderstorms and sudden descending winds, leading to the formation of dense dust storms that reduce horizontal visibility. These clouds may be accompanied by scattered rain showers, which may be heavy in limited areas, leading to the flow of valleys and desert ravines, which is a rare occurrence in the summer.

Winds will be light and generally variable, but sudden downdrafts with strong gusts are expected in the afternoon and evening hours, causing heavy dust storms.

Weather forecast for Wednesday/Thursday night

The weather will be dusty and relatively hot in most areas, with the chance of some random cumulus clouds forming, especially in the desert areas. These will be accompanied by sudden descending winds that will cause dust storms, in addition to the possibility of thunderstorms and rain showers, God willing.

Dusty conditions are likely to extend to parts of major cities at times, with moderate easterly winds becoming particularly active with the passage of cumulus clouds.

Important tips from the Arab Weather app for dealing with exceptional weather:

Avoid direct and prolonged exposure to sunlight between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Drink plenty of cold fluids and refreshments throughout the day and even at night, even without feeling thirsty.

Avoid physical exertion outdoors during daylight hours.

Do not leave children inside closed vehicles, even for short periods.

Be aware of the increased risk of fires near trees and forests, especially when flammable materials are present.

Do not leave disinfectants and flammable materials inside vehicles.

Beware of sudden downward winds in the desert and eastern plains.

Beware of heavy dust storms, especially in desert areas.

Drive carefully on roads that may experience rain.

When is the impact of this exceptional heat wave expected to end, according to the Arab Weather app?

According to the Arab Weather app, a slight, non-significant drop in temperatures will occur on Thursday, August 14, 2025, as the Kingdom remains affected by a heat wave for the seventh consecutive day. The weather will be generally hot in the mountainous highlands and very hot in the rest of the regions. Temperatures will be above 40 degrees Celsius in large areas, including parts of the capital, Amman. Temperatures will also approach the 50-degree Celsius barrier in some areas of the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba Governorate.

On Friday, the heat wave's effects will ease, and temperatures will drop with the activity of northwesterly winds in the afternoon. This will pave the way for a complete easing of the heat wave starting late Friday/Saturday night. On Saturday, the weather will return to normal summer weather during the day, with pleasant to cool conditions at night.

And God knows best.
