East > Egypt > Season and Climate
The
climate in Egypt varies from surprisingly cold to extremely
hot. Along the northern coast of the country the climate
is Mediterranean during winter (December through March)
– cool, windy and humid, with occasional rains. Sometimes
Mt. Sinai can be covered with snow! Summer in Egypt (June
through September) is usually very dry with extremely hot
temperatures into the 90°'s and 100°'s, sometimes
breaking 120° F. Many of Egypt’s best-preserved
sites are in desert regions where it never rains. The parched
atmosphere and desert winds can sway temperatures from hot
in the day to freezing at night. Shoulder seasons of April-May
and October-November are particularly pleasant months to
travel.
