Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - A slight rise in temperatures is forecast on Wednesday, but normal summer conditions will prevail in the highlands and the plains, while it will be relatively hot in other parts of the country, with northwesterly moderate to brisk winds, the Jordan Meteorological Department (JMD) said in its daily brief.

The Kingdom is expected to bake in a blazing heat wave over the next two days that will push mercury levels well above annual average by almost 7-8 degrees Celsius. The Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea and the port city of Aqaba are set to swelter in scorching weather, the Department added.

In Amman and other highlands, north and south, daytime mercury levels will range between 28 and 32 degrees. In the late afternoon and evening hours, cooler weather is forecast as temperatures slide to around 21 and even 15 in the southern highlands. Highs in Aqaba will reach 41 degrees, while lows will stand at 26 at night.
