As for the second track, it does not differ much from the first track, except that the storm will take a more westerly course, as during the storm's movement south on Sunday, its effects will include the Libyan city of Benghazi, and the opportunity for the coasts of northwestern Egypt, including the city of Marsa Matruh, will continue to be affected by rain on Monday as a result of the remnants of the storm in Its way of ebb and flow.

 

The third and least likely path is the disappearance of the storm over the waters of the Mediterranean on Monday, without any impacts on Libya or Egypt.
