Weather instability threatens Yemen and Jordan

Meteorologists are warning of increasing atmospheric instability across parts of the Middle East. In the Arabian Sea, there is a possibility of a tropical depression forming within the next two weeks. While current forecasts remain variable, such a system could influence wind patterns, moisture, and cloud cover. If it develops, Yemen may experience clearer skies in some areas while mountain highlands and basins face waves of mild to moderate cold weather. The potential path of this system remains uncertain, with possibilities including Yemen, Somalia, India, Pakistan, or Oman.

Simultaneously, Jordan is facing intensified atmospheric instability. Forecasters predict heavy thunderstorms across most of the kingdom, including northern regions, particularly during the afternoon hours. These storms may lead to flash floods in valleys and low-lying areas, accompanied by strong winds that could stir up dust and reduce visibility. Authorities have advised citizens and drivers to exercise caution regarding flooding and slippery road conditions, noting that while instability may persist into Monday, conditions are expected to stabilize gradually by Tuesday and Wednesday.
