Jordan to experience gradual temperature rise this weekend

Roya News09-07-2025
Jordan will see the start of a hot air mass this weekend, leading to a gradual rise in temperatures across various regions, according to the latest weather updates from ArabiaWeater.
Despite the approaching air mass, its impact is expected to be limited and will not escalate into a full-blown "heatwave," with conditions remaining within the usual summer range.
Temperatures are forecast to exceed their seasonal averages by approximately 2-4 degrees Celsius. This will result in relatively hot weather in mountainous areas and hot conditions in other regions, while the Jordan Valley, Dead Sea, and Aqaba will experience extremely hot weather.
Forecasts also indicate active northwesterly winds, which may stir up dust and sand in the eastern and southern regions.

Record heat in China strains power grid, stirs health fears

Ammon News - China warned on Wednesday against the risk of power supply disruptions as people struggled to keep cool in record heat baking large swathes of the country, which also spurred warnings to the elderly to guard against heat stroke. Power supply suffers while demand surges, exceeding 1.5 billion kilowatts for the first time last week, energy officials said, in a third new record for China this month, when its first nationwide alert on heat-related health risks also went out. "High-temperature weather will ... have an impact on power generation and supply," weather official Chen Hui told a press conference on Wednesday, adding that it would hit hydropower output and reduce the efficiency of photovoltaic generation. Authorities will send alerts to notify electricity suppliers if tactics such as peak-shaving and cross-regional dispatching of power are called for, added Chen, an official of the China Meteorological Administration. Since mid-March, the number of days when temperatures hit 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees Fahrenheit) or more is the highest on record, said Jia Xiaolong, deputy director of the National Climate Centre. Authorities asked the elderly to stay indoors unless necessary, while urging outdoor workers to scale down activity on such "sauna days". Temperatures have hit new highs since mid-March in the central provinces of Henan and Hubei, Shandong in the east, Sichuan in the southwest, and northwestern Shaanxi and Xinjiang, pushing the national average to the second highest on record. During the last two weeks, 152 national weather observatories tracked temperatures above 40 degrees C (104 F) with one in Xinjiang reaching 48.7 degrees C (119.7 F), Jia said. He did not rule out the chance of more record-breaking heat, saying August could prove as warm as, or even hotter than, in recent years. Reuters
