Egypt | Increased demand for electrical loads as a result of the expected intensification of the heat wave at the end of the week

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 will be increasingly affected by a very hot air mass resulting from the increasing influence of an air high in the upper layers of the atmosphere by the end of the week, which will bring severe weather. It is hot and exhausting, with temperatures expected to reach the mid-forties in Greater Cairo and large areas of the country.

Based on the above, the weather conditions in Egypt on Thursday and Friday can be summarized with the following points:

The heat wave will intensify on Thursday and there will be another clear rise in temperatures to be higher than their average for this time of the year by about 7-9 degrees Celsius. The weather will be very hot in summer in various regions of the Republic, while it will remain hot on the northern coast, with temperatures touching maximum. Mid-forties in Greater Cairo and North Lower Egypt, while it exceeds it in some governorates of South Upper Egypt.

Egypt continues to be affected by the heat wave on Friday, with temperatures much higher than average, about 7-9 degrees Celsius, and the summer weather is very hot in various regions of the Republic, while it remains hot on the northern coast, and maximum temperatures touch the mid-forties Celsius in Greater Cairo. And northern Lower Egypt, while it exceeded it in some governorates of southern Upper Egypt for the second day in a row.

The winds are moderate northwesterly in various regions, and are sometimes active in the afternoon and evening hours in the north of the country.

Heat waves and increased demand for electrical loads

Egypt is facing an increase in electrical loads due to recent severe heat waves, prompting the government to implement scheduled power outages to manage pressure on the grid. These cuts are expected to continue for one to two hours daily, with the aim of reducing the load on the national electrical grid, which has reached its maximum limits with consumption reaching record levels.

These measures are likely to continue until the heatwave eases, with officials warning that power outages could extend into August and possibly mid-September if high temperatures persist.
