The Estimates Department at the Meteorological Department in the General Directorate of Civil Aviation expected that Lebanon and the eastern Mediterranean basin will continue to be under the control of hot air masses centered over the Arabian Peninsula, with temperatures touching 40 degrees in the interior regions with high humidity on the coast, which will increase the feeling of heat. The masses begin to gradually recede on Tuesday, and the weather on Wednesday turns into a usual summer. It warns against direct exposure to sunlight and the outbreak of fires in forest areas. Expected weather in Lebanon: Sunday: Few clouds, with hot and stifling conditions prevailing. Temperatures rise on the coast, recording numbers above their seasonal rates, and remain stable on the mountains and inland. We also see a decrease in humidity, so we warn of the risk of fires breaking out in forested areas. Monday: Mostly cloudy, with stable temperatures inland and a slight drop over the mountains and on the coast. Tuesday: Partly cloudy to partly cloudy with temperatures beginning to drop, but remaining several degrees above their seasonal averages. Fog will form on the highlands starting in the afternoon. Wednesday: Few clouds with a further drop in temperatures and their return to their seasonal levels. Fog will form in the highlands starting in the afternoon. Surface winds: westerly and northwesterly during the day, weakly variable at night, with speeds between 10 and 30 km/h.
