Dusty and partly cloudy weather conditions are expected to prevail on Sunday with spotty showers of rain that could turn heavy in the early morning hours, accompanied by thunder at times, over the southern areas.

The Jordan Meteorological Department (JMD) said that intermittent rain may extend later to cover the eastern and central regions, adding that the weather will tend to gradually stabilize in the afternoon, with southeasterly moderate to brisk winds.

In its daily brief, the JMD warned of poor horizontal visibility due to dust, especially in the southern, eastern and central regions, and of slippery roads in areas that witness downpour as well as flash floods in the valleys and lowlands in the southern highlands.

Pleasant conditions are forecast until Wednesday nationwide, with cooler weather prevailing in most regions, and the appearance of clouds at various altitudes, the JMD noted.

Temperatures in Amman today will reach 12 degrees Celsius, dipping to 11C at night, while the Gulf city of Aqaba will see a hot 28C, sliding into 18C at night.
