Rain in Turaif: What You Need to Know
Turaif is a town in Northern Borders province near the Jordanian border, historically connected to the Trans-Arabian Pipeline (Tapline) route. Tabuk and the wider northern desert belt (including Al Jowf and Northern Borders provinces) have a classic hyper-arid desert climate, with average annual rainfall well under 100mm.
Rain here is driven by weak winter disturbances tracking in from the Mediterranean and North Africa, arriving as brief, scattered showers rather than the intense convective storms seen further south. Much of the region can go a full year or more with minimal measurable rainfall, making any storm event, however modest, a notable local occurrence.
