The Arab Weather Center had indicated in its reports issued during the past 48 hours the possibility of the Kingdom being affected, starting from the afternoon and evening of Friday, by a state of atmospheric instability, resulting from the approach of a cold upper trough to the Kingdom’s atmosphere through Egyptian lands, coinciding with the extension of the Red Sea depression, which leads to the formation of thunderclouds and showers of rain.
