The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has issued a forecast detailing expected weather conditions across Cairo and various Egyptian governorates.

However, southern Upper Egypt and South Sinai are expected to experience hotter conditions.

Lighter to moderate rain is anticipated over central and southern Lower Egypt, and the Canal cities. This rainfall may extend, with a 20 percent to 30 percent probability, to areas within Greater Cairo, northern Upper Egypt, and further south towards Halaib and Shalateen.

Additionally, active winds are expected to blow across parts of the northern coasts, Lower Egypt, Greater Cairo, and South Sinai.
