A cold wave will affect the Kingdom tonight, bringing back winter weather... sharp temperature differences exceeding 15 degrees.

Starting from the afternoon and evening hours of Sunday, May 3, 2026, the Kingdom will be affected by radical changes in the weather, with the gradual decline of the impact of the Khamsin low-pressure system and the influx of a cooler than usual air mass towards the region, leading to a clear and rapid drop in temperatures.

A sharp drop in temperature tonight and a return to cold weather.

During the night hours, the effect of the cold air mass increases across the various regions of the Kingdom, with a noticeable and sharp drop in temperatures, turning the atmosphere remarkably cold in most areas.

Minimum temperatures are recorded at around 10 degrees Celsius and perhaps lower in some cities, a decrease of more than 15 degrees Celsius compared to the daytime atmosphere, as it drops from about 25 degrees during the day to around 10 degrees at night in the capital, Amman, which enhances the feeling of cold and calls for wearing warm clothes.

Dusty conditions and a chance of rain in random areas.

Simultaneously, the atmosphere remains dusty to varying degrees, especially in the south and east of the Kingdom, with the possibility of scattered rain showers in random areas.

Important recommendations:

• It is necessary to wear warm clothes that are appropriate for the significant drop in temperatures.
• Beware of large temperature differences, as they may increase the incidence of colds and flu.
• Exercise caution while driving on highways due to reduced horizontal visibility caused by dust.
