The Kingdom of Bahrain witnessed a noticeable increase in surface humidity levels yesterday evening, according to the Meteorological Department.

Officials stated that humidity was to reach up to 90% late last night, while daytime temperatures today are expected to peak at 42°C, with an apparent temperature rising to 47°C. Slight relief is expected by evening.

Khalid Yassin, Director of the Meteorology Department at the Ministry of Transport and Communications, explained that humidity levels had recently dropped due to the activity of northwesterly winds but are expected to rise again by the end of the week as wind directions shift to the northeast or southeast.

He added that September continues to bring relatively high daytime temperatures, while evenings and early mornings tend to be more moderate.
