The Egyptian Meteorological Authority revealed the expected weather forecast from Sunday, until Friday, July 8.
Hot weather will prevail during the day in Greater Cairo, Lower Egypt and the northern coasts, growing very hot in South Sinai and the southern parts of the country.
Temperatures will be moderate throughout the country by night.
Meteorologists warned of a gradual rise in humidity and temperatures due to the extension of India’s seasonal monsoon in most parts.
High humidity, high temperatures
Humidity will be between 75-80 percent during the night hours over Greater Cairo, and will be at 35 percent during the day.
Humidity on the northern coasts is 85 percent at night and 55 percent during the day.
It will reach 45 percent at night, and 25 percent during the day in the governorates of South Sinai and northern Upper Egypt.
