Forecast Arabia, the Middle East on one frame
A free weather explorer that puts four global forecast models, heat, dust, wet-bulb conditions, and Shamal winds on one regional map.
Field notes
Forecast Arabia organizes its material around a single 24–65°E, 11–43°N map rather than separate national forecasts. The explorer compares ECMWF IFS and AIFS, DWD ICON, and NCEP GFS while holding the valid time constant between model switches. Its terrain layer uses one-arc-minute ETOPO data, and the site gives a concrete example of the consequence: Oman’s Hajar elevation changes from 2,792 metres at source resolution to 1,458 metres at the 28 km scale.
