Temperatures are expected to reach up to 43°C in internal areas, with humidity levels remaining high, particularly along coastal regions.
The weather pattern is influenced by an extension of a weak surface low-pressure system from the east, combined with a high-pressure system from the west and an upper-level high-pressure extension.
Looking ahead, similar conditions are expected through Friday, with partly cloudy skies and intermittent dusty winds. Temperatures are set to rise further on Wednesday before easing slightly on Thursday, especially in western areas.
Winds will remain north-easterly to north-westerly, reaching up to 40 km/h at times, while sea conditions will fluctuate between slight and moderate, becoming rough offshore in the Arabian Gulf during certain periods.
