Saudi Arabia | For the first time this season .. Thunderstorms and hail observed affecting parts of Al-Jawf and the Northern Borders

Sinan Khalaf - Specialists at the "Arab Weather Regional Center" are following up on what the latest satellite images show of different parts of the Al-Jawf and Northern Border regions being affected by the first case of atmospheric instability this season, as cumulonimbus clouds become active, accompanied by showers of varying intensity.

It is worth noting that these weather disturbances are considered normal for this time of year and usually occur more frequently in the fall, as a result of the beginning of the change in weather systems and the beginning of the flow of colder autumn air masses towards the region, in addition to the activity of the Red Sea depression, which leads to the formation of widespread cases of atmospheric instability.

We leave you with these scenes from the heart of the event:
