Ammon News - Relatively hot weather conditions are forecast to prevail in the high lands and the plains, while it will be hot elsewhere, the Jordan Meteorological Department (JMD) said in its daily brief on Tuesday.

Clouds will appear at high altitudes, with northwesterly moderate to brisk winds.

On Wednesday, temperatures will soar as the country will be gripped by a brutal heat wave that will trigger scorching conditions in most regions, the JMD predicted, noting that the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea and Aqaba are set to swelter in blistering weather.

Mercury levels will continue to rise on Thursday, bringing dry and hot weather in most parts of the Kingdom, with northwesterly moderate to brisk winds, the forecasters added.
