Egypt | Severe alerts for ports and maritime traffic from heavy waves on the Mediterranean coasts, starting from Friday / Saturday night

Weather of Arabia - an air depression associated with a cold air mass is concentrated to the north from the island of Cyprus and the south from Turkish territory, and the values of air pressure are low in the location of the depression, so that it pushes high-speed northwesterly winds accompanied by strong gusts on the shores of the Mediterranean and the Red Sea, and the speed of the gusts reaches Up to more than 70 km / hr starting from Friday / Saturday night and through Saturday.

This will lead to a large and sharp rise of waves on the shores of the Mediterranean, so that the height of the waves exceeds 4 meters and is much higher in the width of the sea, with a height that may exceed 5 meters, as well as the height and turbulence of the waves on the shores of the Red Sea at a height of more than 2 meters This is instead of the turbulence of the waves in the Suez Canal, but less than the shores of the Mediterranean.

Therefore, it is necessary to alert the ships and small boats of the danger of severe winds and high waves that are expected to hit the Mediterranean coasts, and to a lesser extent the Red Sea, because of this has implications for the movement and safety of maritime navigation in such difficult weather conditions.
