A temporary cold wave … is it an indicator of new fluctuations?
The rapid shift from a dry five -year -old weather to a cold and humid atmosphere raises questions about the stability of the weather in the next stage. According to meteorologists, this transformation is considered natural during the month of May, which usually witnesses sudden freedom waves followed by relatively moderate or cold periods.
As the summer approaches, these fluctuations remain a familiar seasonal feature in Lebanon, where noticeable thermal differences are recorded between the day and the night, and between one week and another.
What are the causes of sudden decrease in temperatures?
According to meteorology, the decline in the hot and dry air mass that affected Lebanon during the past days is the main reason for the return of heat to its seasonal levels. Added to this is a relatively cold air flow from the western side of the Mediterranean, in conjunction with the high air pressure, which leads to the stability of the air and the decline in heat.
How do we benefit from this moderate atmosphere?
After days of hot atmosphere and dusty weather, this cold wave is a good opportunity to do external activities, especially in daylight hours where the heat is moderate and the air is relatively pure. It is also advised to clean the balconies and windows from the effects of dust, and to ventilate the houses after the disappearance of the plankton.

Lebanon is in front of a transitional stage in the weather, in which the country moves from a very heat five -an atmosphere to a more moderate and humid weather. The remarkable decrease in temperatures during the next week is a positive indication of the improvement of the weather, but caution remains required, especially during the formation of fog. As the summer approaches, these weather fluctuations are expected to be repeated between free waves and stages of temporary recovery.
