The Egyptian Meteorological Authority (EMA) forecasts a heat wave across the country from Saturday to Wednesday, with very hot and humid conditions prevailing during the day.
The weather will be warm and humid during the early morning and evening hours, and hot and humid during the day, particularly along the northern coast.
The heightened humidity will increase the perceived temperature by two to four degrees Celsius above the temperature recorded in the shade.
Weather maps also warn of fog formation between four am and eight am, which may be dense at times on some roads leading to and from northern Egypt, Greater Cairo, the Suez Canal cities, central Sinai, and northern Upper Egypt.
Drivers are advised to exercise caution.
Satellites also detected intermittent wind activity in several regions from Saturday to Wednesday, which may bring some relief from the heat.
Temperatures
According to the EMA, the maximum temperatures in Greater Cairo and the Nile Delta will range between 35C and 36C, while the perceived temperature will reach 37-38C.
The northern coast will see maximum temperatures between 30-31C, while temperatures in Upper Egypt will rise to 37C, and in southern Upper Egypt to 41-42C.
Advice
The EMA warned citizens against direct sun exposure during peak hours, urging them to follow weather forecasts regularly and take necessary precautions – especially given the continued rise in temperatures and humidity levels in the coming days.
The EMA also advised drinking plenty of water regularly, avoiding going out during peak hours (from 12 PM to four PM), wearing loose-fitting, light cotton clothing, hats, taking lukewarm showers, and using curtains to block direct sunlight from entering homes.
