Luxor Weather, When to Go and Luxor Climate Information
(Luxor, Egypt, EG)



Luxor is known throughout Egypt for its extremes in both temperature and weather, with intensely hot and almost unbearable summers, and cooler, more pleasant winters.

The weather in Luxor is dry for much of the year, resulting in a fairly arid landscape and a dusty environment at times.

A well-known phenomenon is Luxor is the hot spring winds, which occur most years in either March, April or May. Known to the Egyptians as the 'Khamsin' winds, this gusty weather brings with it sands from the parched westerly desert areas and can cause extreme fluctuations in the climate, when temperatures may increase quickly within just an hour or two.
