Precipitation forecast. Notice the green/blue shading over Kuwait and surrounding areas. Much higher rainfall over the Middeteranian and Iran
An upper low is diving southward to the eastern Middeteranian countries will bring rain and thunderstorms to various areas in the Middle East. Between today (Saturday) and Wednesday Nov 4th, 2009, rain and thunderstorms will affect most of the eastern middeteranian coasts of Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine. There will also be rain in NW Iran and parts of Iraq.
But Kuwait and parts of Saudi Arabia (close to Kuwait and northern Arabian Gulf) are set to get their first meaningful rain of the season. There will be clouds and chance of scattered light showers there on Sunday and Monday. But it is not before Tuesday until a very unsettled weather takes over with a cold front moving from southern Iraq to the northern portion of the Arabian Gulf, passing by kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Around 1 inch of rain (25 mm) is possible in Kuwait (if not more). The areas near the middle of the Arabian Gulf may get some clouds/rain. While temperatures are set to decrease in northern Arabia, eastern Arabia continues to experience warm weather. Perhaps the 2nd week of November could bring some changes to other Gulf countries.
