Nayrouz News Agency : Moderate weather conditions are expected to prevail on Monday nationwide
during the daytime, with clouds at various altitudes, the Jordan
Meteorological Department said in its daily brief.
In the
evening, a cold air mass accompanying the low-pressure system is
forecast to bring spotty showers and hail in the western highlands, the
JMD added, noting that downpours are expected to intensify and cover
much of the country with thunderstorms and heavy showers in some
regions, causing flash floods in valleys and low-lying areas, including
the city of Aqaba.
Winds will be southeasterly moderate to brisk
with strong gusts and speed reaching 50 kilometers per hour, blowing
dust at times and causing poor visibility, mainly in the southern and
eastern regions.
A tangible drop in mercury levels is expected
on Tuesday, as a second cold air mass is expected to cross the Kingdom
as we go into the night, bringing cold and cloudy weather with heavy
downpours that make floods in valleys and lowlands, while winds will be
southwesterly moderate to active, stirring dust and causing low
horizontal visibility in the Badia regions.
On Wednesday, a
further drop in mercury levels is forecast with wintery conditions
across the Kingdom. Spotty heavy rainfall and thunderstorms are also a
possibility.
Today, mercury in Amman hovers around 22 Celsius
degrees, dropping to 10C during night hours, while the Gulf of Aqaba
will see a relatively hot 28C, sliding into 15C during nighttime.
