Gradual Increase in Temperatures During May

Temperatures in May have experienced a significant rise, accompanied by climatic changes affecting various regions. The National Center of Meteorology has predicted generally clear weather today, with some partial cloud cover, reflecting a gradual increase in temperatures throughout the month.

Climatic Characteristics of May

The National Center of Meteorology clarified that May is part of a transitional period in the climate, acting as a bridge between winter and summer. During this month, the sun moves north of the equator, increasing daylight hours in the northern hemisphere, which directly influences the gradual rise in temperatures across most areas of the country.

Impact of the Atmospheric High

The center indicated that the influence of the Siberian high pressure diminishes during May, while the region is affected by extensions of low-pressure systems coming from the west or east. When these lows approach upper atmospheric systems, clouds form in some areas, creating opportunities for rainfall, which reflects the gradual increase in temperatures during this month.

Humidity Levels and Weather Conditions

Humidity levels decrease relatively compared to April, especially in the latter half of the month. Nevertheless, there remain chances for light fog formation in some areas, although the frequency of occurrence declines as the days progress. These fluctuations, along with the gradual rise in temperatures during May, reflect significant climatic changes.

Weather and Historical Records

The average temperatures during May range between 30.6 and 33.6 degrees Celsius. Maximum temperatures range from 37.3 to 40.9 degrees Celsius, while minimum temperatures remain between 24.3 and 26.8 degrees Celsius. The highest recorded temperature for this month was 51.6 degrees Celsius in the Al Ain region in 2025, highlighting the gradual increase in temperatures during May and its potential impacts.
