Egypt | A quintessential depression will affect the republic on Monday, bringing stirred sand and hot weather

Arab Weather - Despite the end of the Khamasinian depression activity season, the weather forecasting staff at the Arab Regional Weather Center indicates that Egypt will be affected on Sunday and Monday by a Khamasinian depression accompanied by a hot and dry air mass coming from the African Sahara, imposing fluctuations in the weather and temperatures.

Sunday: The beginning of the effect of the Khamasin depression and hot weather in most regions of the Republic, with sand stirring to the west.

In details, the latest computer simulation outputs at the Arab Regional Weather Center indicate that a Khamasini depression will be positioned on Sunday, northwest of Egypt, off the coast of Matrouh Governorate. As a result of the slow movement of the depression, a hot, dry air mass will rush at its front, so temperatures will rise and exceed their averages for this time. About 4-6 degrees Celsius of the year, and hot weather prevails in various regions, with highs in Greater Cairo exceeding the mid-thirties Celsius.

The positioning of the depression in this situation also causes active southwesterly winds to blow with strong gusts reaching 70 km/hour in the northwestern regions, causing sandstorms to rush from the Libyan desert towards those regions, especially Matrouh Governorate.

Low Khamsini moved slowly towards the east on Sunday/Monday night and the night temperatures rose

It is expected, God willing, that the Khamasina depression will move eastward on Sunday/Monday night off the northern coast of Egypt and deepen with the hot, dry Khamasina winds, where there will be a rise in night temperatures and the Khamasina weather conditions will prevail so that the weather will be relatively hot and dry (with the exception of the northwestern region, which is exposed to currents. Freely, causing lower temperatures than in the rest of the interior regions), the dusty condition will extend towards wider areas of the north of the republic, especially the northwestern ones.

Monday: Decreased effects of depression and a drop in temperatures

According to computer data, the Khamasin depression will move away from the Republic on Monday, so that temperatures tend to drop slightly while remaining higher than their averages for this time of the year. The weather will be moderate in the cities of the northern coast and western Egypt, and relatively hot to hot in the north of Lower Egypt, reaching Greater Cairo and northern Upper Egypt. While the heat continues to be very hot in the rest of the regions, the winds are moderate northwesterly, active at intervals.

Northwesterly air currents on Monday/Tuesday night, and the severity of the heat will subside starting in the north of the country

With the hours of Sunday/Monday night, a less hot air mass pushes behind it, accompanied by northwesterly air currents of marine origin, causing temperatures to gradually drop starting from the northern coasts, passing to Greater Cairo and northern Upper Egypt, where the weather becomes pleasant to moderate, especially the late hours of the night and dawn, while it is warm. In South Upper Egypt, God willing, there will be a noticeable increase in surface humidity levels, such that amounts of low-lying clouds will appear in the north of the country, which may be in the form of water mist, especially on agricultural roads and near bodies of water.

During the expected weather conditions, the Arabia Weather Center recommends the need to be aware of the dangers of increasing levels of dust in the atmosphere and its impact on respiratory patients, the extent of horizontal visibility, especially to the west, and not prolonged and direct exposure to sunlight.

God knows.
