Arab Weather - According to the Arab Weather Regional Center's weather maps for air mass distribution and atmospheric pressure, Egypt will be affected by a new Khamaseen depression on Monday, pushing more relatively hot air currents towards the country. Therefore, temperatures will rise further, peaking during the afternoon and evening hours, when temperatures will be 6-8 degrees Celsius higher than their average for this time of year.

Thursday will be a Khamasin weather day, with relatively hot, dry and dusty conditions in the north of the country, with maximum temperatures reaching the mid-thirties Celsius in some areas.

The winds will be southerly, active in speed, accompanied by strong gusts exceeding 70 km/h in the north, causing dust storms in the west of the country.

The Khamaseen depression will gradually move away, with a noticeable drop in temperatures on Monday/Tuesday night.

The Khamaseen depression will gradually move away from Egypt on Monday/Tuesday night, but the weather will remain drier and warmer than usual during the night hours. The weather will remain dusty to varying degrees in many areas of the north of the country during the evening and early night hours.

As the night progresses, the country is affected by humid northwesterly air currents. As a result, temperatures drop significantly, and the weather tends to moderate in many areas. Surface humidity levels rise significantly, with fog forming in parts of the country's north.

The winds will be southeasterly, turning to northwesterly as the night progresses, causing dust storms in desert areas.

A significant drop in temperatures on Monday is expected to be 10 degrees Celsius.

Temperatures will drop significantly on Tuesday by 5-7 degrees Celsius in the capital, Cairo, while remaining slightly above average for this time of year. The weather will be spring-like and warm in the northern regions of the country, including northern Upper Egypt, and relatively hot in the rest of the country. Winds will be northwesterly and moderate in speed, sometimes active, and may stir up dust in desert areas.

Important recommendations from Arab Weather:

Beware of the risks of increased dust levels in the atmosphere and their impact on patients with respiratory and eye diseases.

Beware of the possibility of reduced horizontal visibility on desert roads due to dust.

Beware of noticeable temperature differences.

And God knows best.
