Today’s weather
The General Authority of Meteorology explained that today’s weather conditions in Cairo record a horizontal visibility of about 2,000 meters as a result of dust-laden wind activity.
Meteorology confirmed that the country is affected by the proliferation of low and medium rain clouds over areas of the northwestern coast, with continued cloud cover over areas of Lower Egypt, Greater Cairo, northern and central Upper Egypt, Sinai, and parts of the Red Sea Governorate, which increases the chances of rain falling at intermittent intervals.
Rain falling

There are also chances of light rain in areas of Greater Cairo, the Canal Cities, northern and central Upper Egypt, the Red Sea mountain ranges, and the Western Desert, and it may turn to moderate at times with an incidence rate approaching 30%.
The weather condition is also accompanied by noticeable wind activity, ranging in speed between 40 and 50 km per hour, causing sand and dust, especially in areas of the Western Desert, the south of the country, Greater Cairo, the Canal Cities, Sinai, and parts of the Red Sea Governorate, which may lead to a deterioration in horizontal visibility to less than 1,000 meters in some areas.
Severe marine weather disturbance
