Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Center said that computer weather maps showed that the entire Levant region will witness a noticeable rise in temperatures until Tuesday, before the start of fundamental changes in the weather starting next Wednesday as a result of the rush of a very cold air mass of polar origin towards Turkey, extending to the eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea.

A very cold air mass of polar origin will separate from the mass and reach the eastern Mediterranean. Will it bring snow to the Levant?

According to experts at the Arab Weather Center, computer models indicate that a very cold air mass of polar origin will separate from the parent mass in northern Europe, which may cause some confusion in determining the exact position of this mass. Experts at Arab Weather confirm that this confusion is important as it contributes to determining the characteristics of the weather system that will affect the region. Some computer models indicate that the upcoming low pressure system may be fast and its effects limited, while other models expect the air mass to deepen, leading to a greater impact of this low pressure system on the region.

According to Arab Weather experts, the cold front is expected to be enough to cause snowfall in high mountainous areas, especially in Syria and Lebanon. However, it is still too early to determine whether snowfall will actually occur, as the timing of the cold front with rain is difficult to accurately sense at this stage.

God knows best.
