The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has also forecasted the occurrence of certain weather phenomena on Thursday. A dense fog is expected to cover some roads leading to and from the northern regions, up to Cairo and the canal cities, and possibly central Sinai, particularly between 4 am and 8 am. This fog may be quite dense at times, affecting road visibility.
In addition to the fog, there is a chance of light to moderate rainfall in some areas.

Some areas may witness heavier rainfall, while others may experience lighter showers.
