The temperature jumps before the weather “reversal” and the rain returns at this time!

“Lebanon Debate”

In the coming hours, the Lebanese are anticipating rapid weather fluctuations, starting with a noticeable rise in temperatures and a decrease in humidity, before the unstable spring weather returns in the middle of the week, with active winds and chances of scattered rain falling as a result of the region being affected by a relatively cold air mass.

In this context, the head of the Surface Estimates Department at the Meteorological Department at Beirut Airport, Muhammad Kanj, explained in an interview with “Lebanon Debate” that today’s weather, Sunday, will be partly cloudy to partly cloudy with high clouds, with a noticeable rise in temperatures to exceed their seasonal averages, especially in the southern and interior regions, coinciding with a decrease in humidity.

He pointed out that “winds will be active at times, reaching speeds of about 75 km/h, especially in the northern regions, and may be accompanied by layers of dust in the atmosphere.”

King stressed that the rise in temperatures will be remarkable, as the increase will range between 4 and 6 degrees above normal in a number of regions, especially the southern and interior regions, while the mountainous regions will record a rise of between 4 and 5 degrees.

He pointed out that the temperature in the city of Zahle may reach 30 degrees, with a maximum temperature rise of about 7 degrees, while the southern regions may record a rise of approximately 5 degrees.

As for Monday, King expected that “temperatures will drop significantly, coinciding with an increase in humidity, which will lead to fog formation in the highlands, noting that the winds will remain active at times at speeds that may reach 50 km/h, with the possibility of some dust remaining in the atmosphere.”

He added, “Tuesday’s weather will be partly cloudy with fog in the highlands.”

King revealed that “weather fluctuations will return starting next Wednesday and Thursday, as the region will be affected by a relatively cold air mass that will lead to wind activity and chances for scattered rain, indicating that these fluctuations will be limited, but they will be sufficient to return the volatile spring weather to Lebanon.”
