Check today's weather forecast and temperatures in Saudi Arabia from the National Center of Meteorology. Thunderstorms are expected, with temperatures dropping to 2 degrees Celsius in As-Soudah and Tabuk.

The National Center for Meteorology in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia issued its detailed daily report on the weather conditions in Saudi Arabia , revealing a noticeable variation in temperatures and weather phenomena between different regions of the Kingdom, as some regions recorded a sharp drop in temperatures that reached very low levels, coinciding with thunderstorms and surface wind activity.

The importance of weather monitoring in the Kingdom

This report is part of the National Center for Meteorology's ongoing efforts to provide accurate and up-to-date information relevant to citizens and residents. These reports are of paramount importance given the Kingdom's vast geographical diversity, ranging from humid coastal areas to cold mountain highlands and arid desert regions. This data helps relevant authorities and drivers take necessary precautions, especially in light of warnings about reduced horizontal visibility due to fog or dust in some areas.

The most prominent weather phenomena recorded today

According to the daily temperature issued in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, the lowest temperature recorded was recorded in the As-Soudah region at just 2 degrees Celsius, reflecting the cold winter weather in the highlands, followed by Tabuk at 5 degrees Celsius. In contrast, Mecca maintained its relatively warm weather with a high of 30 degrees Celsius.

The center also warned of the formation of rain-bearing thunderclouds accompanied by active winds over parts of the Makkah, Madinah and Yanbu regions, while other regions such as Tabuk and Qunfudhah are experiencing fog formation that may impede visibility in the early morning hours.
