6 October Weather​

The weather of 6 October is characterized by dry and arid desert conditions. These conditions make 6th of October City enjoy a hot desert (BWh) environment. Because of its close vicinity to Cairo and Giza, it has a climate that is extremely similar to theirs. 

That being said, for a variety of reasons, some locations on October 6th are a little windier and colder at night than central Cairo and Giza. Compared to the heavily crowded centers of Cairo and Giza, this is mostly because buildings and infrastructure are typically more widely separated and have more open areas, which makes it easier for the wind to blow through. 

Furthermore, compared to the moist, humid region near the Nile, the desert where the city was constructed is typically colder and drier.
