Khaberni - Official data from Queen Alia International Airport, located south of the capital Amman, indicate that the maximum recorded temperature reached about 27.4 degrees Celsius. This value is the highest recorded in the month of February for nearly a decade, as climate records show that the last time the temperature exceeded 26 degrees Celsius at the same location during February was in 2016.
In the same context, the areas of Amman Civil Airport, located east of the capital Amman, recorded a maximum temperature of about 24 degrees Celsius. Such values are among the warmest according to the climate records, with no similar temperatures recorded in February since 2021, approximately five years ago.
This significant and unusual rise in temperatures is attributed to the deepening influence of a warm air mass coming from the southern regions, which has raised the temperature levels to higher than the general averages for this time of the year and by a noticeable margin.
However, thankfully, the effect of this air mass will not last long, as the latest weather forecasts indicate that its influence will start to decline from the morning hours on Tuesday, with an expected noticeable and significant decrease in temperatures.
