The counselor Nader Saad, spokesman for the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, said that the warnings of meteorological fluctuations generate a state of anxiety and preparation, and everything indicates that the wave will not reach the intensity of what happened last March.

Saad added, in a telephone interview with the program “On My Responsibility”, broadcast by the channel “Echo Al Balad”, on Tuesday, that the number of governorates affected by the wave of climatic fluctuations is 18 governorates that can be divided into 3 levels in terms of severity of vulnerability to rain, the first level, Alexandria, Matrouh, Salloum and Siwa. And then the three Canal cities, and the third tier, 6 of the Delta governorates, including Beheira, Kafr El Sheikh, Dakahlia and Menoufia.

He explained that the rest of the governorates were also divided into the fourth level, which includes North and South Sinai, and due to its nature there is the possibility of exposure to floods, and the fifth level Cairo, Giza and Qalyubia will be less severe, and the sixth level Fayoum, Beni Suef and Minya.

Regarding the number of days, he said there is a variation in the peak, since Cairo culminates on Friday and Saturday, and Alexandria is Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Regarding the regularity of the study, Saad stressed that there is no talk of disrupting the study, and on Friday, at the end of the day, the situation will be evaluated by the governors, each in their province, to make the appropriate decision.

He noted that a table of expectations has been sent to the governorates and that there are a sufficient number of water suction trucks ready.
