Arab Weather - The latest weather maps indicate an increasing influence of the Siberian High on the eastern Mediterranean region during the hours of Saturday/Sunday night, leading to a noticeable drop in temperatures with frost formation in several areas.

Extremely cold weather in 6 Arab countries, with temperatures approaching zero degrees Celsius.

Syria, the Lebanese highlands, and northern and western Iraq are expected to experience very cold weather, with temperatures dropping to around or below freezing, increasing the likelihood of frost and widespread freezing. This will be accompanied by the possibility of light icy patches on wet roads and open surfaces in the highlands, necessitating caution while traveling on Sunday morning.

In Jordan and northern Saudi Arabia, the bitterly cold weather continues at night, with temperatures nearing freezing in the desert and plains, and a continued risk of frost in several areas, especially in the highlands and exposed regions. This weather increases the need for farmers to protect their delicate crops, and they are also advised to take necessary precautions for their animals and livestock.

And God knows best.
