Arab Weather - Various Arab and Islamic countries will be observing the crescent moon of the holy month of Ramadan this evening. According to computer maps and satellite images in Arab Weather, weather conditions are expected to hinder the observation process in Jordan due to the high concentration of dust and sand particles in the atmosphere, in addition to the presence of clouds at medium and high altitudes.

In contrast, the weather conditions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are favorable for the observation and sighting of the crescent moon of Ramadan, as clear skies are expected to prevail, God willing, in various regions, and the winds will be light and variable in direction in most areas, while they will be active in the northwestern regions, God willing.

And God knows best.
