⚠ Extreme afternoon heat between 11am and 3pm pushes felt temperatures well above the 34°C (94°F) average, on exposed stone surfaces at archaeological sites. Heat exhaustion is a genuine risk for visitors unaccustomed to sustained dry heat. Carry at least 2 liters (68 oz) of water for any outdoor excursion. Know the early signs: headache, dizziness, and cessation of sweating. Act fast.
⚠ Khamsin-type dust winds can sweep in from the eastern desert with little warning, reducing visibility and coating everything in fine particulate. These events are less common in September than in spring but still occur. If the sky turns yellow-brown and the air tastes of grit, move indoors and wait it out. The dust aggravates respiratory conditions and contact lenses. Protect yourself.
