Unstable weather hit Egypt on Monday and is expected to last until the end of the week, Egypt's meteorological authority said, adding that the coastal city of Alexandria will be among the areas most affected.
Rain already started falling early Monday on Alexandria, Egypt's second-largest city.
Unstable weather will also extend to Cairo, coastal governorates, across Sinai, and Upper Egypt.
In the past few weeks, dozens of people have been killed in floods resulting from the heavy rain that hit Beheira and Alexandria governorates.
Various areas in both of these governorates were almost completely flooded due to old rain drainage and sewage systems.
Egypt's President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi appropriated one billion Egyptian pounds from the "Tahya Masr" (Long Live Egypt) presidential fund and one billion pounds from the public budget to help solve the problem of flooding and develop the aging drainage system.
