The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has announced that temperatures will begin to drop gradually, returning to normal levels for this time of year. According to Dr. Mahmoud Al-Qayati, a member of the authority's media center, the temperature in Cairo reached 34 degrees Celsius in the shade yesterday, but is expected to drop to 32 degrees Celsius today. This change is part of a larger trend towards milder weather.

Dr. Al-Qayati stated that temperatures over the coming days are expected to range between 30 and 31 degrees Celsius, which is typical for this time of year. He noted that this decrease in temperature coincides with the approach of October, and that nighttime temperatures in Cairo, northern Egypt, and the northern coast will range between 20 and 21 degrees Celsius. This will bring moderate weather during nighttime and early morning hours.

Despite the drop in temperatures, daytime weather will remain hot in the northern regions, including Cairo. Dr. Al-Qayati attributed this to the natural fluctuation in temperatures during this time of year. As October approaches, he expects temperatures to continue dropping gradually, with normal levels ranging between 29 and 30 degrees Celsius at the beginning of the month and around 27 degrees Celsius by the end of the month.

Dr. Al-Qayati also mentioned that the first half of the autumn season often experiences slight and temporary increases in temperature before returning to normal levels as the season progresses. He emphasized that the authority is continuously monitoring weather developments over the coming days, particularly with regard to rainfall. Today and throughout the week, there will be an increase in low and medium-level clouds in the northern regions.

There is a chance of light rain in various areas of the northern coast and northern parts of the country. Dr. Al-Qayati assured that the authority is closely watching the situation to provide accurate forecasts. This update comes as the country transitions from summer to autumn, with temperatures gradually decreasing and returning to normal levels for this time of year.

The Meteorological Authority's forecast is crucial for planning daily activities, especially in the agricultural and tourism sectors. With temperatures expected to drop, people can expect a welcome relief from the heat. The authority's continuous monitoring and updates will help the public stay informed about any changes in the weather.

As Egypt transitions into autumn, residents and visitors can look forward to milder weather. The country's weather forecast agency will continue to provide updates on the weather situation, enabling people to plan accordingly. With the expected drop in temperatures, Egypt is set to experience a more pleasant climate in the coming days.
