Arab Weather - Egypt has been affected in the past few days by a cold air mass, accompanied by a significant drop in temperatures from their usual rates at this time of year, and high wind speeds, which led to sandstorms and turbulent waves in both the Mediterranean and Red Seas. Cold, cloudy and rainy weather prevailed at times in many northern regions of the republic.
Meteorologists at the Arab Weather Regional Center said that the effects of the cold wave will continue in Egypt during the hours of Friday/Saturday night, as temperatures drop to 7-10 degrees Celsius in large areas of the country, while approaching zero degrees Celsius over the high mountainous elevations, especially in the Sinai Peninsula. Very cold and very cold weather prevails over the mountainous elevations with the possibility of frost formation in those areas.
The computer simulation results at the Arab Weather Center indicate that the cold wave will begin to gradually recede from Egypt starting from Saturday and during the beginning of the week, as temperatures continue to rise, but slowly, and become around or above their average for this time of year. Mild weather prevails during the day, with temperatures reaching twenties in the capital, Cairo, and various regions.
With the continued appearance of low clouds, it may be interspersed with local light rain, often in some coastal areas. The winds will be light to moderate in speed, sometimes active.
Despite the expected rise in temperatures during the daytime and the recovery of the weather in the coming days, the weather will remain cold during the night and early morning hours, with minimum temperatures dropping to 12-14 degrees Celsius in the north of the country, while the weather will remain cooler in the desert areas. With the appearance of low clouds, it may lead to the formation of water mist that may reach the level of fog in the late night hours and early morning, especially on agricultural roads and those close to water bodies.
And God knows best.
