Although it may have been said that Egypt only has two seasons—hot and terribly hot—there are actually a few additional variations. It can encounter a wide variety of weather, from arid heat to even snow! It has a Mediterranean coastline as well as a large portion of the country covered in desert. Around 99% of Egypt’s population is claimed to reside in the lush Nile Valley and Delta. Which comprises 5.5% of the country’s total area. Compared to other parts of Egypt, the climate here is more consistent and, while still very hot in the summer, far more tolerable. Only the winter months in the entire nation get much rain, and although the temperatures do drop a little then, Egypt’s typical wintertime minimum temperatures don’t fall below the customary levels.
Make a well-informed decision about when to embark on your Egypt adventure because travelling in intense heat and seeing outdoor attractions may be quite taxing. Especially for people who are not accustomed to such extreme temperatures.
