Arab Weather - The outputs from the computer simulation at the Arab Weather Center showed that the distribution of weather systems during the coming days is represented by the influence of the central and western Mediterranean regions by a cold air mass accompanied by a strong air depression, and as a result, Egypt is affected by a strong air high in all layers of the atmosphere, which imposes complete stability on the atmosphere, and the same air high is accompanied by an air mass with temperatures warmer than usual.

Temperatures are above average for this time of year.

In detail, Egypt is 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 a rise in temperatures, especially on Wednesday and Thursday, to become higher than the usual rates by about 2-4 degrees Celsius.

Temperatures in the mid-20s in the north and touching the 30s in the south.

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

Less cold at night with heavy fog forming

Minimum temperatures are also expected to rise compared to previous nights, making the weather less cold, but it will remain cold in general, especially in desert areas. Due to the control of a strong high pressure system, along with a noticeable increase in humidity levels and a decrease in winds at night, water mist forms in the late night and early morning hours and is dense.

Sometimes it may reach fog and include the northern part of Lower Egypt, extending towards parts of Greater Cairo, some agricultural roads and areas near water bodies. Therefore, you must reduce your speed while driving in fog to avoid accidents, while maintaining a sufficient safe distance between you and the car in front of you to ensure the ability to react to any emergency.

And God knows best.
