Scattered rain will fall, especially in the interior, starting in the followingnoon, with the possibility of lightning and thunder.
General condition:
Wet spring weather on the coast with dusty weather over Lebanon that leads to poor visibility and instability in the interior regions, as a result of the eastern regions being affected by tropical air masses that lead to the possibility of the formation of cumulus rain in those regions, and as of Friday evening we are affected by relatively hot air masses It subsides on Sunday.
