After a spell of cooler temperatures, Egyptians can look forward to an upswing in warmth starting this weekend. The Egyptian Meteorological Authority (EMA) forecasts that average temperatures will rise by 2-3 degrees across most regions from Saturday. This shift comes as we approach the second half of February and inch closer to Ramadan.
Cairo and Nile Delta: Enjoy Sunny Skies! Residents in Cairo, the Nile Delta, the North Coast, and northern Upper Egypt can expect moderate weather conditions. Temperatures are set to hover between 22°C and 13°C until Tuesday, with no rain expected during this period.
South Sinai and Southern Upper Egypt: Perfect for Beachgoers! For those heading towards Sharm El-Sheikh or Aswan, prepare for even warmer climes. South Sinai and southern Upper Egypt will enjoy highs ranging from 25-26°C with lows of about 10-12°C.
Rain on the Horizon? Light Showers Only! The North Coast and northern Nile Delta might experience light to moderate rain later in the week, specifically on Wednesday and Thursday. But until then, sunny skies are all set for most parts of Egypt.
Ramadan Prep: Just Right Weather Conditions! The first day of Ramadan is anticipated to be March 1st. The upcoming weather conditions seem ideal for the holy month where fasting from dawn till dusk takes place. Moderate temperatures could make fasting a more comfortable experience, balancing between staying cool and preventing quick hunger pangs.
