A set of important things you should know about atmospheric instability

Arab Weather - Weather experts at the Arab Weather Center stated that the Kingdom and the region will, God willing, enter a period of atmospheric instability starting in the afternoon and evening hours of Saturday, December 6, 2025, and continuing into the night. This atmospheric instability is a result of a cold front moving into the upper atmosphere, coupled with the effective response of a Red Sea trough from the south.

Several important things you should know about atmospheric instability:

• It will be preceded by some local rain in limited areas on Friday night/Saturday morning.
• The situation will mainly begin after Saturday afternoon and evening and continue through the night, before decreasing in most areas on Sunday and shifting its focus to the desert regions.
• The situation is random in nature, meaning that rainfall will not be regular in terms of time, place and intensity.
• The situation is accompanied by heavy rainfall within narrow geographical areas, especially in parts of the south of the Kingdom.
• The chances of thunderstorms include Aqaba, Wadi Rum, Al-Disah and surrounding areas.
• The risk of flash floods increases in such cases.
• The rain is accompanied by lightning and thunder.

And God knows best.
