Egypt: Heatwave to continue in the coming days... When will it end?

Arab Weather - The heat wave continues to affect most governorates of the republic, amid extremely hot conditions, especially during the daytime, with temperatures remaining higher than their average for this time of year.

The latest weather maps indicate that a subtropical high will continue to dominate the upper atmosphere, enhancing the hot and stable weather. Greater Cairo is expected to record temperatures between 40 and 42 degrees Celsius in the coming days, and may exceed that in some inland areas in the south of the country.

The weather is expected to be:

Very hot during the day in Cairo, the northern coast, the Canal cities, and northern Upper Egypt.

Moderate to warm at night, with high humidity and a feeling of heat.

Northwesterly winds will continue to be active at times, which may ease the feeling of heat in some coastal areas.

Citizens are advised to avoid direct exposure to the sun for extended periods, especially during peak hours from noon to late afternoon, and to drink plenty of water and fluids.

Signs of a break in the heat wave in Egypt by the end of July and the beginning of August.

The latest weather indicators indicate a gradual decline in the intensity of the heat wave affecting the Arab Republic of Egypt during the final days of July, particularly in the north of the country. Temperatures are expected to gradually decrease, especially in early August, returning to their usual levels for this time of year. This potential decline is linked to the retreat of the upper high and the weakening of the extremely hot air mass that has recently dominated the region.

God knows best.
