Egypt: Warning of severe temperature fluctuations on Monday as the Khamasin depression moves eastward.

Arab Weather - The Khamaseen depression is expected to center in the north of the country before moving towards the Mediterranean Sea. Therefore, temperatures will rise tonight, Sunday/Monday night, and the weather will be warmer than usual in various regions. After midnight, northwesterly winds will blow across the northwest of the country, significantly lowering temperatures in those areas.

Khamasin weather conditions will prevail on Monday, with hot weather and high sand concentration in several areas.

According to the latest numerical models, the country is expected to be further affected by the Khamasin weather on Monday, with temperatures remaining several degrees Celsius higher than their average for this time of year. The weather will be hot to very hot in the northern part of Lower Egypt, extending to Greater Cairo and all parts of Upper Egypt, while temperatures will decrease in the west, where the weather will be warm, with temperatures in the twenties, in contrast to the rest of the country. Westerly to southwesterly winds are expected, sometimes brisk, causing sandstorms and increasing dust concentrations in the atmosphere.

Northwesterly air currents on Monday/Tuesday night, with a break in the heat starting in the north of the country.

During the night hours of Monday/Tuesday, the Khamasin depression will move away, and a cooler air mass will rush in behind it, accompanied by northwesterly air currents from the sea, causing the heat to break and temperatures to gradually drop, starting from the northern coasts, passing through Greater Cairo and northern Upper Egypt, where the weather will become pleasant and tend to be cold, especially in the late night hours and dawn, while it will be warm in southern Upper Egypt, God willing.

During the forecasted weather conditions, the Arab Weather Center recommends paying attention to the risks of increased dust levels in the atmosphere, as well as their impact on respiratory patients and horizontal visibility, especially in the west. Avoid prolonged, direct exposure to sunlight.

And God knows best.
