The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has released its weather forecast for the period from Sunday, October 4, to Thursday, October 8, 2026. According to the forecast, a moderate autumnal weather is expected, with warm temperatures in the early morning and hot temperatures during the day in various parts of the country. The weather will be hot in the northern coastal regions, while it will be very hot in the southern regions.

The Meteorological Authority has warned of a misty fog that is expected to occur from 4 am to 8 am on some roads leading to and from the northern part of the country, including Cairo and the Suez Canal cities. This could potentially cause disruptions to traffic and daily activities. Residents and commuters are advised to exercise caution while driving during this period.

In addition to the misty fog, the Meteorological Authority has also predicted the possibility of light to moderate rainfall in some areas, particularly in the northern coastal regions and northern parts of the country. The rainfall is expected to occur at irregular intervals, and residents in these areas are advised to be prepared for any potential disruptions.

The Meteorological Authority has also reported that there will be wind activity in most parts of the country, which is expected to provide some relief from the heat. However, in some areas, particularly in the southern regions, the winds may be strong enough to cause sandstorms and dust.

The weather forecast also indicates that the temperature will be moderate at night, providing some relief from the heat of the day. However, the temperature will still be relatively high in some areas, particularly in the southern regions.

The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has urged residents to take necessary precautions to protect themselves from the potential effects of the weather. This includes staying hydrated, avoiding strenuous activities during the hottest part of the day, and being prepared for any potential disruptions caused by the rainfall and wind activity.

The weather forecast is expected to have an impact on various sectors, including agriculture, transportation, and daily activities. Residents are advised to stay informed about the latest weather forecast and to take necessary precautions to minimize any potential disruptions.
