Flood Risks Rise in Jordan Region
The Wasam Regional Center forecasts that extensive areas of the Arabian Peninsula, the Levant, Iraq, and northern Egypt will be affected by a regional rainy weather system starting from the end of this week. This system is expected to develop during the last week of October, bringing heavy rainfall with increased risks of flooding. The forecasts indicate that this situation is related to moist air masses from the Arabian Sea and upper atmospheric disturbances at the end of the month, which may persist into early November, leading to expanded rainfall and the formation of floods in many regions, including Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq. The outlook includes heavy thunderstorm rains, especially over the highlands of Mecca, Al-Baha, and Jazan. Additionally, temperatures are expected to rise in the Levant by the end of the week, while Iraq will experience a return to unstable weather conditions, increasing the likelihood of heavy rains and potential flooding.
