Experts at the Arab Weather Center indicated that although the tropical depression falls within a low wind shear zone, which is a positive factor for its development, in addition to the fact that the surface waters of the Arabian Sea are about 28-29 degrees Celsius high, which is also a stimulating factor for the tropical depression to gain sufficient energy to continue its growth and increase its structural organization. However, the tropical depression is directing dry northerly winds as it moves west and southwestward, coming from Pakistani territory.

Advanced computer modeling within the Arab Weather app indicates that the tropical system will face dry northerly winds coming from Pakistan, in addition to wind injection from the upper subtropical high centered southeast of the Arabian Peninsula, which is stifling the tropical system and preventing it from continuing its westward movement in the coming days.
