Dammam 19 degrees Celsius... Statement of maximum temperatures in the Kingdom's cities
The National Center for Meteorology issued its daily report on weather conditions and the latest maximum temperatures recorded in various regions and cities of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for today, Tuesday. The data showed a noticeable variation in temperatures between the coastal, central, and northern regions, with Dammam recording 19 degrees Celsius, reflecting the mild winter weather that the Eastern Province experiences at this time of year.
Climatic and geographical diversity in the Kingdom
This report reflects the great geographical and climatic diversity of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. While western coastal areas such as Jeddah and Mecca experience relatively high temperatures, with Jeddah recording 32 degrees Celsius, the northern regions and highlands enjoy cooler weather. This variation is due to the nature of the terrain, with the southern mountain ranges, such as As-Soudah (14 degrees Celsius), playing a significant role in lowering temperatures compared to the low-lying or coastal areas.
The importance of the National Center for Meteorology's reports
The data issued by the National Center for Meteorology is of paramount importance both locally and in terms of public services. It not only informs citizens and residents about weather conditions so they can choose appropriate clothing, but also impacts vital sectors such as air and sea navigation, agriculture, and the organization of tourism and entertainment events. The Kingdom relies on a sophisticated network of radars and monitoring stations to ensure the accuracy of this information and its real-time updates, thus guaranteeing public safety.
