Climate,
Weather & Temperatures of main cities
Egypt
is generally dry throughout the year with low humidity,
although rain is often experienced along the coast in
winter.
December
to March (winter months),
although generally warm with sunshine most of the days,
can be cool and get cold some times by night, while
it can get very cold in desert areas. April to June,
temperature is conformable, but can get hot in the middle
of the day. July to September is very hot in upper Egypt
(Luxor & Aswan), but Air-conditioned vehicles, Hotels
and Cruises would make the relief. October & November
(Autumn) is a very pleasant weather in general.

Clothing
The
Egyptian climate varies according to the seasons. While
very warm and dry in summer (June,
July and August), it can get rather cold in winter
(specially 2nd half of December
& all January). Cotton cloth are referable
in summer, light warm outfits are more suitable for
winter. The sun can get quite strong, therefore a and
a pair of sunglasses are strongly recommended. Comfortable
shoes are also recommended specially for the sightseeing
tours. It is important
that women should not wear revealing clothes in religious
buildings (Mosques & Churches).
