Mild summer conditions continue across Jordan during Eid al-Adha
Jordan remains under the influence of typical summer weather for this time of year, with relatively hot daytime temperatures and warmer conditions in the Jordan Valley and Aqaba, while evenings and nights have been generally pleasant as the Eid Al-Adha holiday began. Weather Outlook for the Remainder of the Eid Holiday According to the latest forecast from ArabiaWeather, the Kingdom will continue to experience normal summer conditions over the coming days, with no significant rise in temperatures expected. On Monday, relatively hot weather is forecast across most regions, with hotter conditions in the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba. Nighttime temperatures will remain mild and comfortable. Slight Temperature Increase Expected Tuesday On Tuesday, a slight rise in temperatures is expected, with highs ranging 4–6°C above average for this time of year. The weather will be generally warm across the country and hotter in low-lying areas, including the Jordan Valley, Dead Sea, and Aqaba. Northwesterly winds will blow at moderate speeds, and nighttime conditions will remain pleasant. Heatwaves Unlikely in Coming Days Weather models continue to indicate that heatwaves are unlikely to affect Jordan in the near term. This is due to prevailing atmospheric patterns over the Northern Hemisphere that are currently preventing the deepening of high-pressure systems necessary for the development of prolonged and intense heatwaves over the region – per ArabiaWeather.

Temperatures to climb in Jordan ahead of Eid al-Adha
Jordan will continue to experience mild weather on Tuesday, with temperatures remaining below seasonal averages and pleasant to cool conditions prevailing across most regions. Winds are expected to pick up during the afternoon hours – per ArabiaWeather. How long will it last? According to the latest weather maps, this relatively mild spell is expected to persist through Wednesday. However, starting Thursday, a warmer air mass will move in, pushing temperatures back up to typical summer levels. Forecasts suggest a gradual temperature increase during the Eid al-Adha holiday, bringing typical summer conditions across most parts of the country. Areas like the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, and Aqaba are expected to experience hot weather. Heatwave during Eid al-Adha? The expected rise in temperatures during Eid al-Adha does not qualify as a heatwave, ArabiaWeather said. The increase is attributed to a high-pressure system moving into the region, accompanied by a warmer air mass. This pattern is considered normal for this time of year and does not meet the meteorological criteria for a heatwave. Any heatwaves on the horizon? As of now, there are no indications of a heatwave affecting Jordan in the coming week. However, forecasts suggest a gradual warming trend starting Thursday and continuing into early next week, with higher temperatures compared to current conditions—but still within seasonal norms.
