Farewell Stable Weather: A Short Warm Spell Before Winter Returns!

After the end of the rainy weather, Lebanon and the Eastern Mediterranean basin are experiencing stable autumn weather, with relatively cold conditions prevailing, especially in the mountainous and inland regions. Temperatures are expected to start rising from tomorrow, Wednesday, and continue until the end of the week, before the weather returns to being unstable and rainy with a decrease in temperatures.

In this context, the head of the Air Estimations Department at the Meteorological Department, Muhammad Kanj, stated in an interview with , that the low-pressure system has moved away from Lebanon, and that the country is entering, starting today, Tuesday, a phase of atmospheric stability, with the weather remaining cold at night, while temperatures remain close to their natural rates.

Kanj explained that tomorrow, Wednesday, the weather will be cloudy to partly cloudy with the appearance of high clouds, and a decrease in humidity, coinciding with a rise in daytime temperatures to exceed seasonal rates, as we have actually moved to the rates of December. He pointed out that the temperature in Beirut usually ranges between 13 and 21 degrees, and in Tripoli between 10 and 19 degrees, but the atmosphere will be higher than these rates until next Sunday.

He added that starting on Saturday, the weather will gradually begin to fluctuate, with temperatures continuing to rise from today until Friday to exceed seasonal rates, while the atmosphere remains autumnal and cold at night.

Kanj revealed that Lebanon is on a date with a new low-pressure system whose impact begins on Sunday, and will bring with it a noticeable decrease in temperatures, according to forecasts.

He confirmed that the beginning of the depression will be rainy with continued fluctuations during the coming week, as temperatures will drop to become close to their usual rates.

He explained that the expected low is considered “warm” due to its coming from the southern gate, i.e. from the direction of Egypt, and it is not a polar descent, but rather resembles the last low.

He pointed out that Sunday will witness rain with a percentage that may reach 90%, provided that the weather is volatile on Monday, and the fluctuations continue throughout the coming week.

Kanj concluded his speech by saying: “This week is the last that will witness stable weather and a rise in temperatures.”
