The Egyptian Meteorological Authority (EMA) expects moderate weather during the day in Greater Cairo, Lower Egypt and the North Coast on Saturday, moderately warm in northern Upper Egypt and warm in South Sinai and southern Upper Egypt.
The weather will be very cold at night and early morning for most of the country, frost forming on crops in central Sinai, amid active winds in most areas.
Weather maps warned against heavy fog in the morning in areas from the north of the country to northern Upper Egypt.
The EMA advised caution while driving due to the lack of horizontal visibility in the morning to prevent road accidents, as the heavy fog expected in the morning on some roads obscures vision.
Maritime navigation is expected to be disturbed in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Aqaba, with wind speeds ranging from 40 to 60 km/h, while wave heights range from 2.5 to 3.5 meters.
In addition, winds will sometimes be active in areas of South Sinai and the south of the country at intermittent intervals.
Temperatures expected for Saturday:
- Alexandria and Cairo: 20C
- Sharm el-Sheikh, and Hurghada: 25C
- Luxor: 30C
- Aswan: 31
