A state of atmospheric instability begins on Sunday evening and continues on Monday, concentrated in the desert areas, with fears of valleys flowing there

Arab Weather - The weather maps at the "Arab Weather" Center indicate that the Kingdom will gradually be affected by a state of atmospheric instability starting Sunday evening, 1/5/2024, resulting from an extension of the Red Sea depression, which coincided with the presence of a low pressure system in the upper layers of the atmosphere. The unstable weather conditions accompanying this condition are expected to be concentrated in the southern and eastern regions of the Kingdom, especially in the desert areas, and may sometimes extend to other regions. These unstable conditions are represented by random showers of rain, God willing, accompanied by thunder, lightning, and hail at times.

In detail, despite the unstable weather conditions, temperatures will rise slightly on Sunday and will be warmer than average by 3-5 degrees Celsius, with the relatively cold weather continuing in general. The maximum temperature in the capital, Amman, on Sunday will be between 15-17 degrees Celsius.

Gradually, the Kingdom is expected to be affected by a state of atmospheric instability, with high and medium clouds appearing, and the opportunity is prepared with the arrival of the evening and night hours for scattered showers of rain to fall randomly, later concentrated during the night in the south and east of the Kingdom, interspersed with activity of southeasterly winds that may raise dust and dirt locally.

Rain will be concentrated on Sunday/Monday night in the central and southern Badia regions.

On Sunday night, the weather will be generally cold, and the Kingdom will be increasingly affected by the unstable weather conditions. Scattered showers of rain will fall, concentrated in the central Badia regions, including areas such as Qatrana, Dabaa, Al-Zamila, the surrounding areas, and parts of the desert road. Sometimes, hail showers may be accompanied by fears of valleys and ravines flowing and floods forming, so it is necessary to be careful not to be in the valleys. These rain showers also include other areas of the Kingdom, but in a random and irregular manner.

Monday... Instability is concentrated in the southern and eastern Badia

According to the weather maps at the Arab Weather Center, the state of atmospheric instability will be concentrated during the daytime hours on Monday in the eastern and southern Badia regions, where random showers of rain will fall, God willing, in those regions, accompanied by thunder, lightning and hail. The chances of precipitation will gradually weaken in most areas during the evening and night hours.

Despite the unstable weather conditions, temperatures on Monday will remain warmer than normal, and the weather will generally be relatively cold during the daytime hours. The maximum temperature in the capital Amman is expected to reach between 15 and 17 degrees Celsius. At night, the weather will turn remarkably cold in most areas, with generally low temperatures.

Recommendations to be aware of floods, valley flows and torrents carried in the desert

Due to the nature of this weather condition, which is represented by the presence of thunderstorms in geographically random areas in addition to their concentration in the desert areas, there are fears of the occurrence of valleys and ravines flowing and the formation of torrents in the eastern and southern desert areas, including areas such as Qatrana, Dabaa, Al-Zamila and the surrounding areas. It is warned of the necessity of not being in the valleys and staying away from the courses of valleys and ravines, and it is also warned of the dangers of the occurrence of transmitted torrents, which is the transfer of torrents from an area with rainfall to another area that has not been exposed to any rainfall.

And God knows best.
