Rainfall is expected to sweep across the Kingdom until Saturday, with regions like Makkah, Madinah, Tabuk, Hail, and the Eastern Province in the spotlight. And this isn\u2019t your ordinary drizzle\u2014think flash floods, hailstorms, and gusty winds stirring up the dust. Riyadh isn\u2019t sitting this one out either, with light rain and dusty conditions expected to mix things up in the capital.<\/p>\n

Authorities are urging everyone to stay safe, avoid valleys and flood-prone areas, and keep an eye on updates from official sources<\/h2>\n

Whether you\u2019re navigating Makkah\u2019s stormy skies or enjoying the frosty air in the north, this winter is shaping up to be one for the books. If you thought winter in Saudi Arabia was all mild breezes and cozy nights, think again! This year, the Kingdom is cranking up the chill factor with a winter season that\u2019s already making headlines.<\/p>\n

From icy temperatures in the northern regions to rain, thunderstorms, and even hailstorms in the south, it\u2019s time to layer up and stay prepared<\/h2>\n

The weather has taken a dramatic turn, with areas like Qurayyat recording a bone-chilling -1\u00b0C and Turaif hitting 0\u00b0C. Other regions aren\u2019t far behind, with Tabuk at 5\u00b0C and Hail shivering at just 3\u00b0C. While it\u2019s perfect weather to sip on some warm gahwa, it also comes with its share of challenges.<\/p>\n
