As we step into the weekend, the Egyptian Meteorological Authority (EMA) has some sun-filled news for us! Prepare for a warm Saturday, as hot weather is set to dominate the skies across Egypt throughout the day.

Travelers and locals in bustling Cairo and North Upper Egypt should be aware of possible mist affecting agricultural fields and highway visibility this morning.

In terms of breeze, expect occasional gusts of wind across the nation which might offer a refreshing touch amidst the warm air. Additionally, if you’re planning a day by the water, the Mediterranean Sea will be relatively calm, with waves measuring between 0.5 to 1 meter high. Those venturing to the Red Sea will find moderate conditions with waves ranging from 1.5 to 2 meters, perfect for those thrilling water activities!

As night falls, temperatures will drop to a more moderate range, allowing for a pleasant evening. Let’s take a look at the anticipated highs for today’s key cities:

– Alexandria: 31°C
– Marsa Matruh: 31°C
