The Northwestern coast will see a high of 27 degrees Celsius, and the Northeastern coast will reach 28 degrees Celsius.

In addition to the temperature fluctuations, the Meteorological Authority has warned of potential weather conditions. There will be misty mornings on some roads leading to and from northern Egypt, Cairo, and the Suez Canal region. These mists may be dense in some areas, particularly in central Sinai.
The Meteorological Authority has also predicted the possibility of light to moderate rainfall in some areas. Specifically, there is a 20% chance of scattered showers in the northwestern coastal regions and parts of the northern Mediterranean coast. In some areas, such as Sidi Barrani and the Western Desert, the rainfall may be heavier and accompanied by thunderstorms.
Furthermore, strong winds are expected to blow in most regions, with speeds ranging from 30 to 35 kilometers per hour. These winds will help to moderate the temperature in shaded areas and at night.
