Egypt | Dense fog, reaching the level of mist, causing low and perhaps no horizontal visibility in the coming nights
<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><strong>Arab Weather -</strong> The latest outputs of the numerical models of the Weather Operations Department at the Arab Weather Regional Center indicate that, as a result of the rise in the temperature of the Mediterranean Sea surface and the increase in evaporation processes, which raises humidity levels, air currents saturated with moisture are expected to flow towards large areas of northern Egypt throughout the nights of the current week, especially in the middle of the week. These conditions coincide with a calm wind speed, which makes the atmosphere ripe for the formation of fog in many areas.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Fog may be dense, and there is a warning of low and no horizontal visibility in some areas.</strong></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> God willing, water mist is expected to form daily during the coming nights, reaching the level of fog by the middle of the week in the north of the country, causing a decrease and perhaps a complete lack of horizontal visibility. The fog forecast includes large areas in the north of the country, especially agricultural areas and areas close to water bodies, in addition to the north of Lower Egypt and neighborhoods of Greater Cairo on some days.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Fog begins to form during the late night and dawn hours, and continues until the morning hours before it begins to gradually disappear due to sunrise and rising temperatures.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Weather forecasters are advised to:</strong></h3><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> 1. Reduce speed as much as possible, because increasing speed increases the risk of getting involved in traffic accidents during foggy weather.<br /> 2. Ensure clear vision on all glass surfaces in the car, and be sure to clean all windows well before driving in foggy conditions.<br /> 3. Leave a safe and sufficient distance between you and other cars on the road to avoid collision, God forbid.<br /> 4. Do not stop suddenly on the road while driving in foggy weather, because sudden stopping may make it more difficult for other cars to see your parked car, which increases the risk of collision.<br /> 5. Use car lights with lower or medium lighting power while driving in fog, because lights that operate at maximum lighting power will not increase visibility, but will cause a strong light reflection in your direction.<br /> 6. Do not try to overtake other cars, especially in heavy fog, so as not to risk colliding with other cars.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> God knows best.</p>
