51°C Heat and Dust to Sweep Across Kuwait

KUWAIT CITY, May 25: The Meteorology Department forecasts hot and dusty weather for Sunday and Monday, with moderate to active northwesterly winds reaching up to 45 km/h, likely to cause dust storms in open areas and limited impact on residential zones.

Acting Director Dharar Al-Ali told KUNA that Kuwait is currently under the influence of the Indian monsoon low-pressure system, bringing with it an extremely hot air mass. Over the weekend, temperatures are expected to range between 45°C and 48°C across most land areas.

By Tuesday through Thursday, the heat is expected to intensify further as the air depression deepens, pushing maximum temperatures to soar between 48°C and 51°C, accompanied by light to moderate northwesterly winds.

Residents are advised to take precautions during peak heat hours and limit outdoor exposure in dusty areas.
