Title: Iran Braces for Varied Weather Conditions: Storms, Dust, and Temperature Shifts Ahead
Unstable Weather Patterns Expected in Northern and Eastern Regions
According to meteorological forecasts, coastal areas along the Caspian Sea, as well as parts of Ardabil, East Azerbaijan, Zanjan, the Alborz highlands, North Khorasan, and northern Semnan provinces, will experience thunderstorms, heavy winds, and potential dust storms on Saturday. Similar conditions are expected on Sunday for the Caspian coast, Ardabil, North Khorasan, and the Alborz highlands.
Stable Conditions Midweek with Rising Temperatures
Monday and Tuesday will bring relatively stable weather across most regions, with a slight temperature increase in the northern parts of the country. However, southern Fars, the highlands of Sistan and Baluchestan, and Hormozgan may see convective cloud formations in the afternoons and early evenings, leading to scattered showers, thunderstorms, and gusty winds over the next five days.
Dust Storms and Reduced Visibility in Eastern Provinces
Over the next five days, strong winds and dust storms are anticipated in the northeast, east, and southeast, particularly affecting South Khorasan and northern Sistan and Baluchestan, including Zabol. These conditions may significantly reduce visibility and air quality.
Rough Seas Forecasted in Key Waterways
From Friday to Sunday, the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Caspian Sea are expected to experience turbulent waves, posing potential challenges for maritime activities.

Extreme Temperature Contrasts Across Iran
Ahvaz is set to be the hottest provincial capital, with temperatures soaring to 47-48°C, while Shahrekord will remain the coldest at 12-13°C over the next two days.
