Rosetta weather
in October.
A warm, very dry month: the 5th warmest and the 7th driest of the year. Meets the pleasant-weather rule
Long-term climate patterns, not a forecast for a particular trip.
October is a warm month in Rosetta: daytime highs average 26.9°C and nights cool to about 20.3°C. By daytime temperature it is the 5th warmest of the 12 months.
Expect about 7.3 mm of rain on roughly 1 day, which makes October a very dry month (the 7th driest of the 12 months). Daylight, from sunrise to sunset, lasts about 11 h 26 min on an average October day.
The nearest other city in this atlas is Idkū (15 km away). In October its highs average 27.7°C, 0.8°C warmer than Rosetta, with 6.8 mm of rain.
Among the 107 cities listed in Egypt, Rosetta ranks 105th of 107 for the warmest October highs and 105th of 107 for the driest October (rainfall, lowest first). The mean October high of those 107 cities is 30.9°C; Rosetta is 4.1°C cooler than that mean.
From October to November, average highs fall by 4.0°C to 22.9°C, and monthly rainfall rises from 7.3 mm to 24 mm.

Read the numbers correctly
Climate, not a promise.
These patterns help compare months. They cannot tell you the weather on a specific day of your trip.
Sources, method and limitsHow these numbers are made (what the highs, lows and rain days mean, the sources and the model cell used for Rosetta) is explained once on the Rosetta year overview and on the Sources, method and limits page.
