The center also reported that surface winds will be active during the daytime. These winds may raise dust and sand in parts of Tabuk, Al-Jouf, Northern Borders, Hail, Makkah, and Madinah.
The effects of strong winds may spread to Qassim, Riyadh, and the Eastern Province, resulting in diminished horizontal visibility.
The National Center for Meteorology advised citizens and residents to take precautions and consistently track weather updates and warnings, especially in areas expected to experience the impact.
