According to the Jordan Meteorological Department (JMD), the
weather will become colder at night with northwesterly moderate to brisk winds
at times.
The weather department also warned of poor visibility due to
fog and dust formation in the highlands and the Badia regions, and of slippery
roads in the areas experiencing rain, according to the Jordan News Agency,
Petra.
On Friday, temperatures will dip few degrees, so it will be very cold and
partly cloudy with a chance of intermittent rain in the northern and central
highlands, the JMD predicted, noting that winds will be westerly active with
strong gusts at times, blowing dust in eastern, southern and parts of the
central regions.
Towards the night, skies will gradually clear and rainfall will taper off, the
JMD further said.
As we head into Saturday, mercury levels will slightly rise,
making relatively cold weather in hilly areas and the plains, and fair conditions
in the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea and Aqaba, with low-altitude clouds and
northwesterly moderate winds, the department noted.
The highs in Amman and other highlands across the Kingdom will range between 12
and 15 °C today, dropping to 3 °C at night. In the Red Sea port of Aqaba, it
will be much warmer with mercury levels reaching 24 °C.
