Will the rest of October bring low-pressure systems to the Levant?

Arab Weather - The latest analyses of weather maps and numerical models at the Arab Weather Center indicate that the rest of October 2025 will witness continued marked temperature fluctuations across most parts of the Levant, with the prevailing weather pattern remaining stable with no signs of a break.

Why don't low-pressure systems reach the Levant?

The main reason for this is the lack of depth in the jet stream, which leads to most of the low-pressure systems being concentrated northward over Turkey and the eastern Mediterranean. These low-pressure systems affect the northern Levant as an extension of the low-pressure system, leading to scattered rain showers, especially on the Syrian and Lebanese coasts.

As for the southern Levant, including Jordan and Palestine, it is under the control of an extension of the subtropical high pressure system, which limits the chances of rainfall and contributes to stable weather conditions.

What about the rest of October?

Data from the Arab Weather app indicates that rainfall is not expected to increase across most parts of the Levant during the remainder of October 2025. This is due to the lack of radical changes in the distribution of weather systems, as southern Levant remains under the influence of an extended upper high pressure system.

However, this does not prevent the possibility of some passing clouds forming and flowing over some coastal and inland areas of the Levant. However, these clouds will be random and scattered and will not be part of a complete weather system.

And God knows best.
