Satellite images currently indicate the extension of a very long, transcontinental cloud belt, more than 11,000 kilometers long, which is now passing over the Kingdom and the Levant region and is causing rainfall.

This cloud belt is continuous and begins in the Atlantic Ocean in the west of the African continent, passing over the Sahara Desert, Egypt, the Levant region, Iraq, Turkey, reaching the Balkan Peninsula and the central and northern parts of the European continent.

Such images and scenes show the interconnectedness of weather between continents and countries, with a cloud in the Atlantic Ocean and the African continent reaching and connecting to rain in the Levant and the European continent.
