Kuwait braces for sweltering heatwave in coming days

Abdulaziz Al-Qarawi, Director of the Meteorological Department, explained that Kuwait is impacted by the extension of the Indian monsoon low, which brings a hot air mass to the area, resulting in a significant increase in temperatures. The maximum temperature recorded has reached between 51 and 52 degrees Celsius across most of the country’s land areas.

Al-Qarawi stated in a press release that he expects the temperature to continue rising in the coming days. As a result, the weather will be very hot during the day and warm at night, accompanied by active northwesterly winds that may raise dust and reduce horizontal visibility, particularly in open areas.
