Meteorological Authority warns against sun exposure
The Kingdom of Jordan has been affected by a hot air mass since Thursday, originating from the Arabian Peninsula, leading to a noticeable rise in temperatures. The weather has become hot in most areas and extremely hot in the Badia, the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba. The meteorological authorities confirmed that the peak of this air mass's impact will occur on Saturday and Sunday, before a gradual and slight decrease in temperatures begins on Tuesday, with the influence of the hot air mass continuing in a limited way. They also warned of active winds that could stir up dust and reduce visibility, advising against direct exposure to the sun during peak hours from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., and emphasizing the importance of not leaving children and the elderly inside enclosed vehicles. Additionally, they urged avoiding lighting fires in forested areas due to the high temperatures and the risk of wildfires. The weather services noted that during August, approximately 28 heatwaves have been recorded since these phenomena began, with ongoing climatic changes leading to severe heatwaves and rising temperatures worldwide, especially in Europe.
