Arab Weather - Computer simulation results in Arab Weather indicate that northern Levant (Syria and Lebanon) will be affected by a highly effective low-pressure system starting on Friday and continuing until Saturday. God willing, this low-pressure system is expected to cause severe weather fluctuations, including a noticeable drop in temperatures, active to strong winds, and significant disruption to wave movement, especially on the coasts.

A highly active low-pressure system carrying very heavy rain will affect Syria and Lebanon on Friday.

In detail, the highly effective low-pressure system is expected to cause large amounts of rain clouds to multiply over the eastern Mediterranean basin during the weekend, gradually moving towards Syria and Lebanon starting from Friday, and God willing, it will lead to heavy and continuous rainfall for long hours in many areas. This rain may be accompanied by thunderstorms and hail showers, which increases the risk of flash floods, overflowing valleys and streams, and a significant rise in water levels.

This low-pressure system is accompanied by strong winds on the sea and coastal areas, and is preceded by dust storms before the start of rainfall, in addition to severe wave disturbance on the coasts of the Levant. Forecasts indicate that rainfall amounts may reach or exceed 100 mm in some areas, especially on the Syrian coast and northwest Syria.

As for southern Levant (Jordan and Palestine), the region is expected to be affected by warmer-than-usual air currents on Friday, leading to higher temperatures and active winds carrying dust, causing densely dusty conditions in several areas, including Palestine and the Gaza Strip.

As night falls, a noticeable drop in temperatures is expected, and the indirect effects of the low-pressure system will be felt through scattered showers of rain over parts of Palestine, in addition to areas of northern and central Jordan, especially during the late hours of Friday night into Saturday and Saturday morning. These showers will generally be muddy.

And God knows best.
