At least 19 people were killed and more than 40 injured over the weekend as a result of a powerful storm that swept through Egypt. Torrential rains with gusty winds, which hit mainly the northern regions of the country, led to dozens of road accidents, fires and landslides.
Navigation through the Suez Canal was temporarily suspended, 10 seaports on the Mediterranean and Red Seas were closed, and air traffic was disrupted. A state of emergency has been declared at the country's airports, many air harbors operate according to the actual weather.
The central regions of Egypt were at the mercy of the strongest sandstorm, carrying tons of sand and dust from the desert. Due to heavy rainfall in Alexandria, the second largest city in the country of the pyramids, the central streets and squares were partially flooded.
Near the northern capital of Egypt, a 6-story textile factory building collapsed on Sunday, in which there were about 50 workers.
According to official figures, seven people died and 10 were injured. Currently, rescuers continue to clear the rubble, under which there may still be survivors.

In the city of El-Mahalla El-Kubra, Gharbiya province (80 kilometers northwest of Cairo), a five-story residential building collapsed. The victim of the incident was a child, four other Egyptians were injured.
In the Red Sea, 15 kilometers south of Safaga, a tourist boat sank. Because of the storm, he could not moor to the shore, he was covered by a strong wave. The crew of the boat managed to get over to the rubber boat and get to the shore. No harm done.
On Monday, meteorologists promise a slight improvement in the weather and an increase in temperature, but already on Saturday, a second wave of rains and sandstorms will hit Egypt, ITAR-TASS reports.

There was a strong dust storm in Sharm yesterday, it was blowing me off my feet, today the weather is better, but a storm. Excursions have been canceled for today, so now it’s very interesting here: the beaches are closed, excursions are closed, sit in your room - what a rest!

you know, I'm from Almaty, for me your prices have always been very, very reasonable))) it took us $ 1240 per person (!) to go to the Hilton (4 *) for 10 days (!) and this is only for a ticket .... without current expenses for excursions, etc. and, by the way, our prices have not fallen at all, not even for a gramulechka ...

This is because of the psychology of our people! From the beginning they buy goods, and then they are only interested in what it is and why.

No, when I bought on December 11, I was interested in everything. They just advised me to December, so that there would be no winds and storms, that is, they said in January and February, you can get into a strong wind. About closed beaches, too, who then could have thought? ((

I mean that ours are still buying tours there, and then they ask here on the site if everything is so bad. As far as I remember, on December 5, a German woman died and the beaches were closed for a serious reason. Yes, you can only sympathize. You just read the questions and wonder, "we bought a tour to this hotel, and then read the reviews, isn't it really that bad?" I was very surprised by the reviews of Marsa Alam, people only arrived in Hurghada to their surprise to find out that it is very far away, and so on.

Somehow everyone forgot last year's January downpour. It looks like such weather surprises are becoming the norm for Yegi.

Odessa. Our ticket prices have not fallen yet, they have dragged in Christmas and New Year's dinner, as a voluntary-compulsory one, although apart from white tablecloths and exorbitant prices for champagne on this day, it will not be any different. We are going to NG and honestly did not want to sit in the room, but the weather is bad. not predictable

Yes, the beaches are officially open! But there is no real explanation of what happened and why! You have to enjoy the sea, and what a pleasure if you don’t know what to expect at any second. Prices have been as high as they have been. Personally, I'll wait until March and see what happens next.

Well, you can look at the exchange rate of the ruble against the dollar and recalculate, I think it will not be difficult for anyone. For comparison:
14 AMC AZUR RESORT 5* AI Standard Room/Double+CHD
From Frankfurt it will cost the same: 1585.00 euros. Much more expensive, and I took the cheapest tour. It is imperceptible that the prices have fallen.
