The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has issued a warning against being deceived by the current weather conditions, as temperatures are expected to fluctuate significantly over the coming days. According to the authority, a high-pressure system will bring temperatures to nearly 40 degrees Celsius in some areas, with Cairo experiencing a rise of 5 degrees Celsius on Monday, reaching 32 degrees Celsius during the day. However, this increase is expected to be short-lived.

The meteorological authority has attributed the temperature fluctuations to a series of weather changes that will affect the country over the next few days. While the day will be warm, with temperatures rising significantly, the nights will remain cool, with a significant drop in temperatures expected by the end of the week. The authority has urged citizens to be prepared for these changes and to take necessary precautions to protect themselves from the extreme weather conditions.

On Saturday, October 31, 2026, the weather is expected to be mostly sunny, with some areas experiencing foggy conditions, particularly in the northern regions of the country. The meteorological authority has warned of the formation of mist, which may be dense in some areas, on roads leading to and from northern Egypt, up to Cairo and the Suez Canal cities, and in central Sinai and northern Upper Egypt.

In addition to the fog, the authority has also predicted the possibility of light to moderate rain showers in some areas, particularly in the northwestern part of the country. The rain is expected to occur at irregular intervals, with a 30% chance of precipitation in some areas. The authority has advised citizens to be prepared for these conditions and to take necessary precautions when traveling.

The meteorological authority has also warned of the potential for strong winds in some areas, which may exacerbate the weather conditions. The winds are expected to be moderate, but may pick up in some areas, particularly in the desert regions. The authority has urged citizens to be cautious when outdoors and to avoid traveling unless absolutely necessary.

The temperature fluctuations are expected to continue over the coming days, with a significant drop in temperatures expected by the end of the week. The authority has advised citizens to be prepared for these changes and to take necessary precautions to protect themselves from the extreme weather conditions. The drop in temperatures is expected to bring some relief to citizens, particularly in the northern regions of the country.

The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has urged citizens to stay informed about the latest weather conditions and to follow the authority's updates and forecasts. Citizens can access the authority's website and social media channels for the latest information on the weather conditions. By staying informed, citizens can take necessary precautions to protect themselves and their property from the extreme weather conditions.
