Arab Weather - The latest satellite images from the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that the Maghreb, specifically northern Algeria and northern Tunisia, are affected by an extension of a stormy low pressure system centered in southern Europe, accompanied by the rush of cold polar winds. The edges of a cold air front will cross northern Algeria and northern Tunisia, accompanied by the flow of cold winds on Monday and Tuesday.

Showers of rain in northern Algeria and northern Tunisia, and snowfall in the highlands

As a result, low clouds cover the area, with partly cloudy to cloudy weather prevailing over northwestern Algeria and northern Tunisia. Rain falls intermittently, sometimes in the form of freezing rain. Snow also falls on the mountainous heights in these areas, and the snow is intermittent.

The impact of the low pressure system is expected to gradually extend towards northern Libya on Tuesday, accompanied by active winds and an increase in cloud cover, with showers of rain falling on many areas, including the capital, Tripoli.

Cold weather and strong winds at sea, with recommendations to avoid approaching the coasts

The weather is generally very cold, and very cold over the high mountains. The deepening of the depression in southern Europe is causing strong winds with gusts reaching about 120 km/h, causing new disturbances on the waves, with waves reaching about 6 meters high in the western part of the Mediterranean, including the Mediterranean coasts.

God knows best.
