The Egyptian Meteorological Authority has issued an official warning regarding unstable maritime navigation conditions along several northern Mediterranean beaches in Egypt. The affected coastal locations specified by the authority include Matrouh, El Alamein, Alexandria, Gamasa, and Baltim.

According to the weather bulletin, wind speeds across these coastal stretches are forecast to reach between 30 and 35 kilometers per hour. As a direct result of the elevated wind speeds, sea conditions are expected to become rough, with wave heights rising to between 1.5 and 2 meters along the shorelines.

In addition to the maritime disruption warning, the weather report highlighted an end to the recent heatwave affecting the country. Temperatures are anticipated to decline as cooler conditions take effect on Tuesday, bringing a break from the preceding high thermal levels.

Authorities and meteorological officials continue to monitor marine activity along the coast, advising residents, travelers, and maritime operators in the specified coastal towns to remain aware of the choppy sea conditions.
