Egypt | A new heat wave is knocking, and Cairo is facing temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius

Arabia Weather - The latest computer simulation outputs at the Arabia Weather Center, especially those that sense the movement of air masses, indicate that the Republic of Egypt is affected by a very hot air mass resulting from the increasing influence of a huge air ridge in the upper layers of the atmosphere, which, as of Friday, will continue in the coming days with very hot weather. It is stressful and expectations are that record temperatures will be recorded in the southern regions, touching the 50 degree Celsius threshold, while exceeding the 40 degree Celsius threshold in Cairo and large areas of the country.

Arab weather specialists: A heat wave will inflame the atmosphere of Egypt in the coming days, and most attention is directed to the southern regions

In the details, specialists from the Air Operations Department at the Arab Weather Center said that the air pressure will increase over the Republic in the coming days and during the weekend, especially in the south, and will be accompanied by an increase in the heating processes of the very hot air mass, so that there will be another rise in temperatures, especially on Thursday and Friday, to be higher than their averages for such. This time of year is about 7-9 degrees Celsius, and the weather is very hot in various regions of the Republic, and the heat increases as we head south, so that the weather is hot in those areas, and the winds are northerly to northwesterly moderate, accompanied by active gusts that stir up sand and cause a decrease in visibility. Especially horizontal. Upper Egypt governorates.

Computer simulation: scorching temperatures reaching the end of 40 degrees Celsius in the southern regions

Arabia Weather specialists are following what computer modeling indicates about the exposure of the southern regions, especially Aswan and its environs, and the border regions to blazing air currents with record temperatures that may reach the threshold of 50 degrees Celsius, as it is expected that these regions will record temperatures ranging between 47-48 degrees Celsius, while they will feel Computer modeling recorded a temperature ranging from 42-44 degrees Celsius in the rest of the regions, including northern Lower Egypt and neighborhoods of Greater Cairo, God willing, especially on Thursday.

Hot nights in various regions of Egypt and the cities of the northern coast are more moderate

With the continuation of the heat wave, there is an increase in the night temperatures (minimum), and the weather tends to be hot to relatively hot in various regions, but the exception to this is the northern coasts and Sinai, as these regions are affected by marine-source air currents that work to reduce temperatures and moderate but humid atmosphere prevails. .

During the period of influence of the hot air mass, we at the Arab Weather Center recommend that you pay attention to the following:

• Avoid prolonged and direct exposure to sunlight
• Drink sufficient amounts of fluids and moisturizers constantly
• Do not leave compressed containers and any flammable materials inside closed vehicles under sunlight
• Do not leave children inside closed vehicles, even for a short time
• Be aware of the risk of increased levels of dust and its impact on patients with respiratory problems, respiratory problems, and horizontal vision
• Wear loose, light-colored clothing and hats.

God knows.
