Probably hurricanes, but the term doesn't come up too much in reference to local weather. Hurricanes are phenomena of the Atlantic (and Eastern Pacific) Ocean. Egyptians likely spend more conversation time on simoons, or dust storms.

Why are hurricanes referred to as cape-verde?

Hurricanes usually originate as disorganized clusters of thunderstorms called tropical disturbances. In the Atlantic, many of the disturbances that become hurricanes develop as the move over the ocean from Africa near the Cape Verde Islands. Hurricanes that begin in this manner, called Cape-Verde type hurricanes, are more likely to become major hurricanes than other Atlantic hurricanes.
