Jordan: A drastic change in weather is expected Wednesday evening and night, with thunderstorms and rain.

Arab Weather - The weather maps in Arab Weather indicate that the Kingdom will be affected, God willing, during the evening and night hours of Wednesday/Thursday and the dawn of Thursday by a state of atmospheric instability that will be strong in some areas. It is expected, God willing, that this state will lead to a radical change in the weather, as the chances of the formation of thunderclouds accompanied by heavy rain at times will increase, coinciding with the occurrence of lightning, thunder and thunder, especially in the southern regions.

Wednesday: Warm and dusty weather, with the onset of unstable weather conditions expected in the late afternoon.

And during the daytime hours of Wednesday, God willing, an additional rise in temperatures is expected, so that in the afternoon and evening hours, temperatures will be around the middle of 20 degrees Celsius in the capital Amman and various Jordanian cities. The weather will be warm but dusty as a result of the activity of the easterly winds.

Medium and high clouds will appear, and the opportunity will gradually increase for showers of rain in the south of the Kingdom, especially in the late afternoon hours, and these may be accompanied by thunder. They may also extend to random areas of the north and center.

The Kingdom will enter a period of atmospheric instability on Wednesday evening and night/Thursday, and a recommendation is made to stay away from valleys and flood channels, especially in the southern regions.

According to the latest data via computer simulation in Arab Weather, it is expected that during the night hours of Wednesday/Thursday and the dawn of Thursday, the cold air will deepen in the upper layers of the atmosphere and meet with an extension of the Red Sea depression, so that the amounts of clouds will increase and showers of rain will fall in several areas of the Kingdom, including the southern regions, including the Gulf and city of Aqaba, Wadi Rum, the Disi Basin and the surrounding areas, the Shara Mountains, Wadi Musa, the southern Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, Wadi Araba and the roads leading to it, and the desert areas, including the city of Ma’an and Al-Jafr, reaching the Al-Mudawwarah border area and the road leading to it.

These showers are sometimes heavy and accompanied by thunderstorms, lightning, and possibly hail in some areas. These thunderstorms are also accompanied by strong gusts of wind, causing temporary dust storms in some desert areas, and high and turbulent waves in the Gulf of Aqaba.

Key recommendations during the weather conditions

• Drive carefully and maintain a safe distance during rain and fog.
• Be aware of the risk of flash floods and overflowing valleys, especially in low-lying areas, including the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea region, and areas where flash floods usually occur.
• Do not risk crossing floods, as the water speed is rapid and it carries debris and stones.
• Be aware of the risks of soil and rockfalls, especially in the southern highlands, slope areas, and valleys.

And God knows best.
