The Early Warning Center for Disasters and Climate Risks in Hadhramaut has issued a warning regarding the ongoing unstable weather conditions affecting the governorate and other parts of Yemen over the next 48 hours.

The center's bulletin, reviewed by "Barran Press," stated that recent weather analyses and numerical forecasts indicate the persistence of unstable weather conditions in Hadhramaut.

According to the center, the unstable weather, attributed to a "moist tropical wave," is also impacting central and western governorates and is expected to continue intermittently throughout the coming week.

The center anticipates increased activity of cumulonimbus clouds in the afternoon and early morning hours over parts of the Wadi and the interior highlands of Hadhramaut and the deserts. There is a possibility of this extending to the southern and western highlands, the elevations of the Hadhramaut coast, and nearby rural areas, potentially impacting coastal regions with moderate to heavy rainfall and localized flash floods in some wadis and their tributaries.

The Early Warning Center has urged all citizens to exercise caution during rainfall, avoid crossing wadis, and secure public and private property from potential floodwaters. They emphasized the importance of avoiding contact with electricity poles or wires during and after rainfall and staying away from flying objects during downdrafts. The center also cautioned about potential reduced visibility during heavy rainfall on roads.

Meanwhile, a meeting held in Seiyun on Tuesday discussed measures to address the potential impacts of the tropical wave on the Wadi and desert directorates of Hadhramaut.

According to the Saba news agency, the meeting, chaired by Amer al-Amri, Deputy Governor of Hadhramaut for Wadi and Desert Directorates, reviewed the preparedness of relevant authorities for emergencies.

Al-Amri instructed the directors general of the directorates and their emergency committees to increase readiness and preparedness to address the impacts of the tropical wave, monitor the situation, and maintain direct communication lines with the Joint Operations Room and early warning centers.
