As Egypt is a very hot country, it rarely receives rain. When it does occur however, it mostly happens within coastal areas; however to the large amounts of rain that they will get at once, flash floods will commonly be triggered and will sweep through the nearby cities like Alexandria or Cairo.
Aside from flash floods, Egypt is also prone to facing extremely hot weather as well as cold during the summer. Nighttime is when it gets to freezing levels, with sometimes the temperature falling all the way down to 0 degrees celsius. And during the day, the air will get very hot; especially during the desert, to the point where even the wind forms hot sandstorms. It gets very suffocating during this point.
