Egypt

The climate of Egypt is mainly hot and dry. Apart from the Valley of the River Nil, which runs through the country from south to north, it consists entirely of desert.

In the summer, the temperature often reaches 45 degrees Celsius in the south of the country, and 30 degrees Celsius in the north.

In winter, the weather is cooler, and along the north coast it is often cloudy, with occasional rain.

In Cairo it rains on average for three days in a year, and in the south of Egypt rain is almost unknown. There are often gentle breezes from the north throughout the year, except during March and April, when a hot, dusty wind blows from the south.
