According to Ramadan, the cold weather is expected to become more prominent due to the combined effect of the north-westerly winds and the influence of a polar high system. This will lead to colder temperatures in the coming days, with particularly chilly nights expected.

The change in weather comes as Kuwait transitions from warmer daytime conditions to much cooler evenings and nights. Ramadan emphasized that this weather shift will feel particularly cold during the evening hours into Wednesday.

How Polar Highs Affect Kuwait's Weather Patterns

The phenomenon known as a polar high is driving this expected cold wave, causing temperatures to dip. A polar high originates from cold air masses that settle into the atmosphere and lead to these temperature variations. Meteorologists track these systems closely, as their influence leads to dramatic shifts in climate, especially during winter months.
