During the sunny weekend, father Marwan Najjar plans
to take advantage of eased coronavirus restrictions to activate the “picnicking
season” with his family. “Trips to Salt and Ajloun are among what we used to do
every year, and we are not giving this up after gloomy 2020,” Najjar told Jordan
News.
Wadi Al-Rayan in Irbid is another ideal site for warm
conditions, according to Najjar. “Mills, creeks, and ponds are very enjoyable
there in spring. In brief, any green landscape around the kingdom is a great
refreshing option this week,” he said.

forecast to reach a high of 33°C to 32°C and a low of 19°C in Amman and the
Kingdom’s highlands and plains.

temperatures soar to a high of 41°C during daytime and dip to a low of 26°C during

The weather department forecasts warm weather to

On Friday, temperatures in the capital and hilly
areas will see a high of 31°C during the day, dropping to 19°C at night. On
Saturday, a further slight decrease brings maximums of 30°C and minimums of
18°C in most parts of the country.

Sea area, and Aqaba. On Friday, temperatures are predicted to hover between
40°C and 26°C, dipping a bit on Saturday to 39°C and 25°C.
