Emadeddin Khalil, Staff Reporter

The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) has expected that scattered areas in the country will see formation of cumulus clouds over four days from Thursday. This is attributed to the fact that the country is being affected by an extension of a surface low-pressure system from the East, accompanied by an extension of an upper air high pressure, according to the NCM.

As for Thursday’s weather, the NCM expects that it will be fair to partly cloudy and dusty at times. Low clouds may appear over the east coast by the morning with a probability of convective clouds formation eastward by afternoon.

Temperature may tend to decrease, especially westward. It is also expected to be humid by night and on Friday morning with a chance of fog or mist formation over some western areas.
