     A remarkable tribute to one of mankind's greatest ancient civilizations lies along the Nile River valley. This is the land of the Pharaohs. A place that continues to lure the masses intent on viewing the pyramids, tombs, and monuments. For these wonders of the world stand to this very day, as a reminder of an illustrious power that long ago influenced and helped shape western civilization. The grand scale of these early triumphs has never ceased to hold onlookers spellbound. After the main attraction, many visitors avail themselves of the abundant and equally fascinating adventures to be experienced in Egypt. Scuba diving in the Red Sea is a definite highlight for those interested in the fabulous undersea world along Egypt's east coast. Others, meanwhile, might enjoy a romantic cruise on the Nile or a few exciting nights on the town in one of Egypt's bustling cities. Luxury hotels, five star restaurants, and cultural extravaganzas are all part of the modern day Egyptian travel experience.

Throughout Egypt, days are commonly warm or hot, and nights are cool. Egypt has only two seasons: a mild winter from November to April and a hot summer from May to October. The only differences between the seasons are variations in daytime temperatures and changes in prevailing winds. In the coastal regions, temperatures range between an average minimum of 14° C in winter and an average maximum of 30° C in summer.

Temperatures vary widely in the inland desert areas, especially in summer, when they may range from 7° C at night to 43° C during the day. During winter, temperatures in the desert fluctuate less dramatically, but they can be as low as 0° C at night and as high as 18° C during the day.

The average annual temperature increases moving southward from the Delta to the Sudanese border, where temperatures are similar to those of the open deserts to the east and west. In the north, the cooler temperatures of Alexandria during the summer have made the city a popular resort. Throughout the Delta and the northern Nile Valley, there are occasional winter cold spells accompanied by light frost and even snow. At Aswan, in the south, June temperatures can be as low as 10° C at night and as high as 41° C during the day when the sky is clear.

Egypt doesn't get much rain. Most falls along the coast, but even the wettest area, around Alexandria, receives only about 200 millimeters of precipitation per year. Alexandria has relatively high humidity, but sea breezes help keep the moisture down to a comfortable level. Moving southward, the amount of precipitation decreases suddenly. Cairo receives a little more than one centimeter of precipitation each year. The city, however, reports humidity as high as 77 percent during the summer. But during the rest of the year, humidity is low. The areas south of Cairo receive only traces of rainfall. Some areas will go years without rain and then experience sudden downpours that result in flash floods.
