What will the weather be like in the coming days?
The Forecasting Department at the Meteorological Service of the Directorate General of Civil Aviation expects tomorrow’s weather to be partly cloudy to mostly cloudy, with fog over the highlands and a slight rise in temperatures, which will remain below seasonal averages. Winds will pick up in the afternoon, reaching around 50 km/h, with a chance of scattered local rain, especially in the south and northeast of the country.

The bulletin states:

- General situation:
Variable spring weather with temperatures below seasonal averages will prevail over Lebanon and the eastern Mediterranean basin until Thursday, when the region will be affected by a low-pressure system originating from the Black Sea, increasing instability. Its effects are expected to continue until Saturday evening, gradually subsiding thereafter.

Note: Average April temperatures: Beirut 15–24°C, Tripoli 13–23°C, Zahle 9–22°C.
