Arab Weather - Weather experts at Arab Weather expect the Kingdom to remain under the effects of the fourth-degree low-pressure system, according to the Arab Weather scale for the intensity of low-pressure systems, on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. This system brought heavy rain and hail showers to many areas during the night and on Tuesday.

There is a chance of snow on the peaks of the southern highlands.

Stormy weather and intermittent rain in several areas

Therefore, the weather will be generally cold in all regions, and very cold in the mountainous areas, especially the high ones, and cloudy and stormy with rain expected, God willing, at intervals in parts of the north, central and eastern parts of the Kingdom, in addition to parts of the governorates of Karak and Tafila and the western highlands of Ma’an, and the rain will be accompanied by hail at times.

Precipitation is expected to take the form of snow showers over the peaks of the Sharah Mountains, including the Rashadiyah and Qadisiyah peaks in the Tafilah Governorate, and the peaks of Shobak, Petra District, Southern Taybeh and the west of Ma’an Governorate, with the possibility of freezing on the peaks of the Sharah Mountains.

Strong winds are blowing across the Sharah Mountains, with some gusts exceeding 110 km/h.
Strong winds are blowing across the Sharah Mountains in southern Saudi Arabia, with gusts expected to exceed 110 km/h, requiring caution and preparedness. Meanwhile, across most regions, westerly winds will be active to strong, with periods of intense gusts.

Tonight's recommendations:

  • Be aware of the danger of strong, gusty winds in the southern highlands of the Kingdom, where some gusts may reach speeds of more than 110 km/h. It is advised to reduce the speed of transport and large vehicles on the roads in those areas and to secure outdoor belongings.
  • It is necessary to be aware of the risks of reduced horizontal visibility on mountain roads due to fog.
  • Drive carefully on roads that may experience snow showers in the Sharah Mountains of Tafilah Governorate and the western parts of Ma'an Governorate.
  • Observing the safe use of heating appliances.

Wednesday: Slight rise in daytime temperatures and local rain in some areas

The Kingdom remains under the influence of the remnants of the cold and humid air mass that settled in the region after the low pressure system moved away from the Kingdom. Accordingly, temperatures will rise slightly but will remain below average by about 2–4 degrees Celsius. The weather will be cold and unsettled, ranging from partly cloudy to generally cloudy, and local showers of rain are expected to continue.

And God knows best.
