#Mesh _ hazar... very alect warning..!!

Due to the Republic's exposure to two air events at one time, where the north of the country is affected by a high air stretch based on the western Mediterranean, while the south of the country is affected by a low extension of Sudan.

resulting in record high temperatures on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursday 19-21 May 2020... Egypt will be the highest place in the world in temperatures ever... arriving in Cairo and Manhor And Mansoura 45°M Wasi 44 Homeland 45°M and North Delta 44°M....

** This phenomenon can sometimes lead to death.. especially when exposed to sunshine directly and during fasting...

Required and must commit:

** No children and older people out on the streets by day..

** Not running air conditioners in a continuous way...

** people keep their mind very much and drink a lot of pre-suhoor water..

** Suhoor is rich in vegetables and fruits and reduce or prevent precise and caffeine needs to keep body fluids.

** not exposed to the sun directly under any item, cotton dressing, covers hands and white head covers are worn...

** we reduce physical effort as much as possible and who does not need to postpone and comfort himself..

** For cars:

1-make sure the cooling water level is preferably washing its cooling role, make sure there is no leak in the cycle and change water with green or red water according to your type of car.

2-make sure the electricity of Arabic, especially cooling fans.

3-check the condition of the air and air level.

4-not filling gasoline more than half with automatic class.

5-Do not leave laptops, phones, lighter, alcohol bottles or any flammable materials inside the car...

6-ventilation of the car glass so that hot air doesn't stretch inside the car and there is a glass crash..

God save everyone - please commit...

Stay in and stay as cool as you can. It might be worth trying the old trick of placing a few bowls of cold water, or damp cloths about in rooms which help keep more moisture in the air and a tad cooler.

I don't think the locusts have reached Egypt yet. They have been eating their way up Africa for a while now and, as far as I'm aware still going strong.

Walked down to the bank, about ten minutes from my home at 7.45 am. Got a tuk tuk then to take me to the fruit shop, sudane market and home. I am dripping.
It is very very hot out even so early in the morning.

Put up with a few 50° in the 15 years here, you soon get aclimatized to it, I'm still managing 6 hours a day working in it, 6am until 12, not bad for a 67er.

During lockdown the last 18 months builders round here have been endlessly employed everywhere,
refurbishing old new bars, restaurants, ect even a new spanish deli..'inshaala!

Once my favorite summer and winter boozer described by some famous actress who lived
around the corner. "Oh ? that's easy 'my favorite pub is the magical '3 kings of clerkenwell.It's totally..'awesome".
From 15757 to this 15916..... it's called 'gentrification.
We around here in Clerkenwell have been "Gentrified since the 12 century was lots of boozers...
(The nunnery of St Mary, a house of Augustinian canonesses, was founded shortly after the adjacent Hospitaller priory of St John in about 1144 by the same man, Jordan de Bricet, the lord of Clerkenwell manor.)

So blame Jordan and Nuns... good job they all drank....
Personally my advice.....would to 'be prepared, the 'boy-scouts motto!
When I was rebuilding my 'old adobe hacienda... I rented this place under the mountain it was totally 'brill.
15707
I flooded the garden 3 times...shhh...
I have always recommended plunge pools with bubbles and living in a house made of mud
'cool in summer warm in 'winta! qed!
but! with strategically placed fridges stocked with iced cold drinks, does help.
as do cold water storage tanks for those icy showers...

I found 'One can survive quite happily,
EGYPT ?
It's always been a hot country and it's getting hotter so, 'be prepared and remember also the 7 P's.

Or you could bugger off to Cyprus..... 8)
Ps: i'm still on the hunt for someone with a private lear jet into el gouna..
Pss: The 7'P's ?

Hot DRY weather to be more specific Doctor.
I doubt covid is spreading in the air outside out there.

All life on earth needs water to survive, be you human or a deadly virus, or in the case of English football fans, a mixture of the 2. 😎

I think in such times it is better to stay at home and install a good air conditioner in your bedroom. I have been recently searching for a better place where I can do so. But the problem is I am not sure about the best place. What do you think about airconservicing.org? If you have ever heard of them, can you please give me reviews? Any help is acceptable.

June in the United States is the hottest month on record, with maximum temperatures often breaking records. People often turn to AC units for cooling off in the hot summer months. But how do you know which one is the best A/C unit for your home? There are scores of models on the market with varying degrees of functionality and features. For example, I think that the best for such weather is the cooling systems from https://www.majorcooling.com/. I installed it last month, and I am delighted with it. It has an intelligent system that allows you to control it from your phone.
