After a cool wave, Egypt to embrace warmer weather next week with no rain until Tuesday

CAIRO – 14 February 2025: Egyptians have been feeling the chill over the past couple of weeks, but good news is on the horizon. As we head into the second half of February, leading up to the holy fasting month of Ramadan, warmer weather is expected.

Starting Saturday, the Egyptian Meteorological Authority (EMA) predicts a rise in temperatures by 2-3 degrees across most areas.

Cairo, the Nile Delta, the North Coast, and northern Upper Egypt can look forward to some pleasant, moderate weather.

The weather is expected to be even warmer in South Sinai and southern Upper Egypt—perfect for some fun in Sharm El-Sheikh and Aswan.

Worried about rain spoiling your plans? No need to fret. There is no expectations for rain until Tuesday.

However, keep in mind that the North Coast, home to the lovely Mediterranean city of Alexandria, and the northern Nile Delta might see some light to moderate rain on Wednesday and Thursday. Just grab an umbrella, and don’t let a little drizzle ruin your day!

Looking ahead, Cairo and the Nile Delta will enjoy average highs of 22°C and lows of 13°C until Tuesday, while the North Coast expects highs of 19-22°C and lows around 10-11°C.

In northern Upper Egypt, you can expect highs of about 23°C and lows of 8°C, while southern Upper Egypt will bask in highs ranging from 25-26°C with lows of 10-12°C.

Weather during Ramadan, when Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, can really mean a lot. While, hot, summery days can leave you feeling thirsty, cooler temperatures might make hunger strike a bit too quickly. So, this moderate weather is just perfect.

This year, the first day of Ramadan is expected to fall on March 1 in Egypt, bringing along the warm vibes of Ramadan lanterns and the cheerful spirit of people celebrating the blessings of the month.
