Will this year’s mild summer lead to more extreme winter weather?

Jordan has experienced a typical summer season in 2024 up to the early part of August, with only a few heatwaves that were neither severe nor record-breaking in terms of temperature.

According to ArabiaWeather, the absence of intense heatwaves this summer does not necessarily reflect the nature or severity of the upcoming rainy season.

It added that the characteristics and intensity of the rainy season are influenced by various climatic factors, including ocean temperature changes, atmospheric currents, and evolving pressure systems in the coming months.

A mild or normal summer does not indicate the likelihood of snowfall in winter. Snowfall is influenced by complex factors such as the movement of cold air masses and interactions between moist and dry air currents – per ArabiaWeather.

Each climatic season has its own dynamics, affected by a wide range of factors.
