Arab Weather - The latest satellite images from the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that Iraq is affected by a state of atmospheric instability, as the sky is covered with clouds at different altitudes, interspersed with cumulus clouds. It is expected, God willing, that showers of rain will fall on many areas, but they will be concentrated in the west of the country and include neighborhoods of the capital, Baghdad.

 

Rainfall will generally be of varying intensity, sometimes heavy, accompanied by heavy hail showers, with strong thunderstorms and active surface wind speeds in some parts of western Iraq. In such cases, there is a risk of flooding and rising water levels in these areas.

 

And God knows best.
