Riyadh — The National Center for Meteorology (NCM) predicts that scorching to extremely hot weather will continue in certain parts of Saudi Arabia from Sunday through next Wednesday. The heat wave is anticipated to impact the Eastern Province, as well as the eastern and southern areas of the Riyadh region, with temperatures in these regions expected to soar between 47 and 50 degrees Celsius.
The NCM has advised citizens to stay informed about the latest weather updates via their website and official social media channels. The center also noted that thunderstorms accompanied by hail may still be possible in some highland regions of Jazan, Asir, Al-Baha, and Makkah. Additionally, active winds could cause dust and sand to be blown around in parts of Tabuk and Najran.
These conditions could lead to near-zero visibility in the coastal areas of Madinah and Makkah, stretching along the coastal road to Jazan.
