Have the chances of the Kingdom being affected by strong weather depressions ended with the arrival of March?

Arab Weather - February 2026 ended without Jordan being affected by a major weather system (a mature or fully-fledged low-pressure system), and this is attributed to the nature of the weather systems that dominated the northern hemisphere, and these same weather patterns are still influential to this day.

With the arrival of March, questions abound regarding whether the chances of the Kingdom being affected by strong or deep weather depressions have passed. Looking back at climate archives – setting aside long-range forecast maps due to their lower accuracy – we find that the Kingdom has been affected in previous Marches by strong weather depressions that caused severe weather phenomena.

One of the most prominent examples of this is Storm Dragon, which affected the eastern Mediterranean basin region, including Jordan, in mid-March 2020, bringing heavy rains and strong winds, and unfortunately causing significant damage.

Climatically, based on climate archives, the chances of the Kingdom being affected by strong weather depressions remain during March, although weaker compared to the peak of winter, especially January and February. Climate records also show that winter weather depressions – not necessarily strong or deep – have continued to affect the Kingdom in some years until May.

On a more optimistic note, the chances of rainy weather remain in the coming periods, God willing.

And God knows best.
