Arab Weather - Jordan was affected in the last week of the holy month of Ramadan by a cold wave called "Al-Jalmoud", as temperatures dropped significantly and were lower than their usual rates for this time of year. This wave caused a very cold air mass of polar origin to enter, and the wave was accompanied by a drop in temperatures to below zero at night.
