Warning of heavy fog, reaching the level of mist, on a daily basis in several areas

Arab Weather - The latest outputs of the numerical models at the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that as a result of the rise in the temperature of the Mediterranean Sea surface and the increase in evaporation processes, which raises humidity levels, air currents saturated with moisture are expected to flow towards large areas of northern Egypt throughout the nights of the current week, especially in the middle of the week. These conditions coincide with a calm wind speed, which makes the atmosphere ripe for the formation of fog in many areas.

Fog may be dense, and a warning of low and no horizontal visibility in several areas.

God willing, water mist is expected to form daily during the coming nights, reaching the level of fog, especially in the middle of the week in the north of the country, causing a decrease and perhaps a complete absence of horizontal visibility. The fog forecast includes large areas in the north of the country, especially agricultural and express roads and those close to water bodies, in addition to the north of the Delta extending towards neighborhoods of Greater Cairo, and the weather will be cold in general.

Fog begins to form during the late night and dawn hours, and continues until the morning hours before it begins to gradually disappear due to sunrise and rising temperatures.

Weather forecasters are advised to:

1. Reduce speed as much as possible, because increasing speed increases the risk of getting involved in traffic accidents during foggy weather.
2. Ensure clear vision on all glass surfaces in the car, and be sure to clean all windows well before driving in foggy conditions.
3. Leave a safe and sufficient distance between you and other cars on the road to avoid a collision, God forbid.
4. Do not stop suddenly on the road while driving in foggy weather, because sudden stopping may make it more difficult for other cars to see your parked car, which increases the risk of collision.
5. Use car lights with lower or medium lighting power while driving in fog, because lights that operate at maximum lighting power will not increase visibility, but will cause a strong light reflection in your direction.
6. Do not try to overtake other cars, especially in heavy fog, so as not to risk colliding with other cars.

Temperatures are above average for this time of year.

Egypt continues to be affected by an air mass with temperatures higher than usual for this time of year, similar to those that affect the country in the spring, leading to temperatures being about 2 degrees Celsius higher than usual.

Temperatures in the early twenties in the north and touching 30 degrees Celsius in the south

Temperatures are expected to be in the early twenties Celsius in most areas of northern Egypt, including Greater Cairo, while temperatures will reach 29-31 degrees Celsius in the southern areas, specifically in the southern Upper Egypt governorate, such as Aswan and neighboring areas.

And God knows best.
