Put the coats away, but do keep your jackets on hand. You may need them.
The Egyptian Meteorological Authority (EMA) forecast showers on Wednesday in the Western Desert and northern Upper Egypt.
Moreover, morning fog is expected on agricultural and highway roads and areas near water bodies from Wednesday to Sunday.
The EMA expects intermittent winds to hit the Greater Cairo and Red Sea Governorate areas this Wednesday and to blow through South Sinai, northern Upper Egypt, and the northwestern coasts from Thursday to Sunday.
From Wednesday to Sunday, daytime temperatures in Cairo and Lower Egypt will start at 19 degrees Celsius and rise to 21 degrees Celsius by Sunday. Nighttime lows will remain steady at 11 degrees Celsius.
On the northern coasts, daytime temperatures will be around 18 degrees on Wednesday, increasing slightly to 20 degrees by Sunday. Nighttime lows will dip to 10-11 degrees.
In northern Upper Egypt, daytime temperatures will start at 20 degrees and gradually increase to 23 degrees by Sunday, while nighttime lows will fluctuate between 7-9 degrees.
However, the sun will break through over southern Upper Egypt. With plenty of sunshine, daytime temperatures will slowly rise from 25 degrees on Wednesday to 27 degrees by Sunday. Nighttime lows will drop to 11-12 degrees, so we advise you not to put the blankets away just yet.
