All governorates across the country have announced a state of emergency.
The experts of the EMA expect rain to fall in the northern coasts, the Delta and Cairo up to Middle Egypt.
Weather will be cold somehow in the northern districts but it is very at night especially during the small ahead of dawn.
The strong winds disturb navigation in the Red and Mediterranean Seas.
Mahmud Shaheen, Director of Meteorological Forecast at the EMA, revealed that the spell of changeable weather will run until the morning of the day after tomorrow.
He warns that the peak of that spell takes place today and tomorrow. There are bigger chances for rainfall in the capital.

Shaheen added that as of Monday weather conditions will improve gradually as chances of rainfall reduce significantly and temperature degrees will be around the normal average at that time of year.
Around Alexandria and the resorts that fringe the Mediterranean, summertime temperatures usually peak at around 31 Celsius (87F) but further south, in Aswan, temperatures average 41 Celsius (106F).
Although there can be a few wet days each month along the Mediterranean coast, much of Egypt experiences little or no rainfall.
So, with sunshine averaging eight to 10 hours each day in the winter and as much as 12 hours in the summer, tourists can base their choice of time to visit solely on the likely temperatures.
With summer temperatures exceeding 35 Celsius (95F), touring sites around Cairo can be very uncomfortable.
But it should also be pointed out that January and February can be quite chilly months in Cairo and along the northern half of Egypt’s Red Sea coast.
Dust-laden winds may affect almost any part of the country between late March and June. These can give some very unpleasant conditions at times.
