Abstract EN

The study of the characteristics of the frequency distribution of thunderstorms and associated rainfall characteristics in northern Saudi Arabia.

The research aims to study the frequency distribution of the total thunderstorms in the north of the Kingdom (Tarif-Arar-Qurayyat) during the period 1978-2014.

The frequency analysis of thunderstorms was based on the daily climate data of twelve types of thunderstorms (13, 17, 29, and 30).

91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98 and 99), a total of 338 storms at the Qurayat station, 438 storms at Tarif station and 501 storms at Arar station using descriptive statistics (arithmetic mean, standard deviation, These data were used to calculate the return period and apply the Descriptive distribution method to determine the probability of the Exceedance Probability of Thunderstorms, their classification and their likelihood of recurrence during periods of 5 to 100 years.

The results showed the control of storm storms of class (95) with a total of 128 storms at Tarif station, 103 storms at Al-Qurayat station and 177 storms at Arar station with significant variations in the spatial distribution of thunderstorms from one year to the same station and even from one station to another during the same year as indicated by the results Comparison of Stations.
