Arab Weather - Arab Weather specialists confirmed that the latest updates from computer simulations indicate that the Arab Republic of Egypt will continue to be affected by a cold air mass at the end of this week, as temperatures will remain cooler than their averages for this time of year, with the continued blowing of southwesterly winds that in turn lead to stirring up sand and increasing the feeling of coldness significantly, especially during the evening and night hours.

A low pressure system centered off the northern coasts will bring active southwesterly winds on Friday.

A low pressure system is centered off the Egyptian coast on Friday, causing active southwesterly winds with strong gusts that will stir up sand in many areas, including Greater Cairo , and reduce horizontal visibility, especially on desert roads and exposed areas. Temperatures will remain 2-3 degrees Celsius cooler than their average for this time of year.

The weather will be relatively cold in the northern regions, and tending to be cold in the rest of the regions except for the far south of Upper Egypt. The maximum temperature will be around 17 degrees Celsius in the capital, Cairo , while it will be higher than that in the far southern regions and the north of Lower Egypt during the afternoon and evening hours, with the appearance of clouds at different heights that may be accompanied by local showers of rain on limited parts of the northern coasts, which may sometimes be accompanied by thunder.

Cold to very cold weather during the night hours

During the night hours, the weather will be cold to very cold in all areas, especially over the mountainous heights of the Sinai Peninsula and desert areas. Minimum temperatures range from 8-9 degrees Celsius in various parts of Greater Cairo. It is recommended to wear warm clothes, with a focus on children's and elderly clothing, especially during the night and early morning hours.

And God knows best.
