Kuwait City, 1 Oct (KUNA) — The Meteorology Department has forecast that low and mid-level clouds will dominate the country, bringing scattered light showers, occasionally thunderstorm, with a chance of fog. Overall, weather during the weekend will be hot and humid during the day, and warm to mild at night.
The Acting Director of the Department, Derrar Al-Ali, told Kuwait News Agency (KUNA) that weather maps and numerical models indicate the country will be affected by an extension of a surface low-pressure system, coinciding with a low-pressure system in the upper atmospheric layers. This will lead to increased low and mid-level clouds, accompanied by scattered light showers that may occasionally be thunderstorm. Winds will be southeasterly, light to moderate, occasionally strengthening, with a chance of fog forming in the evening and early morning.
Al-Ali added that Thursday’s daytime weather will be hot, partly cloudy, and relatively humid, especially in coastal areas. Winds will be variable to southeasterly, light to moderate, ranging between 8 and 30 kilometers per hour, with a chance of scattered light showers. Maximum temperatures are expected to range between 40 and 42 degrees Celsius. Sea conditions will be light to moderate, with wave heights between 1 and 3 feet.
