On Wednesday, there will be a slight increase in temperatures, resulting in pleasant conditions across high mountain areas, while the rest of the regions will experience warm weather. Winds are expected to be moderate, originating from the southeast, with potential gusts at times.
At night, temperatures will be relatively cool in most areas, except for mild conditions in the Jordan Valley, Dead Sea, and Aqaba. Southeast winds will continue, remaining moderate.
In Aqaba, daytime temperatures will be warm, while nights will be mild accompanied by winds shifting from north to south, with moderate and occasional gusts. The sea will show moderate wave activity.
A further rise in temperatures is anticipated on Thursday, with overall sunny and warm weather, although some clouds at medium and high altitudes may appear. Winds will remain moderate from the southeast, with intermittent gusts.
Nighttime on Thursday will see relatively cool temperatures in many regions, while the Jordan Valley, Dead Sea, and Aqaba will experience milder conditions amidst continuing clouds at high altitudes. Winds will be light, still originating from the southeast.
Warnings issued for Thursday indicate a possibility of reduced visibility due to dust, particularly in desert regions.
On Friday, temperatures are expected to rise further, maintaining sunny and warm conditions complemented by clouds at medium and high altitudes. Winds from the southeast will be moderate.
Nighttime on Friday will be marked by relatively cold temperatures across most areas, with milder weather in the Jordan Valley, Dead Sea, and Aqaba, sustained by light northeasterly winds.
Saturday will continue this trend, with temperatures 10-12 degrees Celsius above normal for this time of year. Warm weather will prevail across most regions, becoming even warmer in the Jordan Valley and Aqaba. Some clouds at medium altitudes are anticipated in the southern and eastern parts of the kingdom, with moderate winds from the southeast.
At night, cooler temperatures will dominate high mountain areas while remaining mild elsewhere, alongside light northeastern winds.
In conclusion, Jordan is set to experience a prolonged heatwave with rising temperatures over the week. Warm conditions will dominate during the day, particularly in areas like Aqaba and the Jordan Valley. Although nights are expected to be relatively cool, the significant temperature increase poses particular considerations for visibility in desert areas due to dust.
