Temperatures to Rise Sharply After Brief Cool Spell

Israel is set for a brief respite from the heat this week, with a slight drop in temperatures and a chance of light local drizzle in the north and center on Sunday. However, this cooling trend will be short-lived.

Starting Monday, temperatures are expected to climb back up, exceeding seasonal averages. This warming trend will continue into Tuesday, with particularly higher temperatures in mountainous and inland areas. Heavy heat stress is anticipated across most of the country throughout the day on Tuesday.

Sunday will see partly cloudy skies and a minor temperature decrease, especially in the hills and inland regions. Early morning hours might bring localized drizzles to northern and central areas, offering temporary relief.

By Monday, the weather will shift to partly cloudy to clear. Temperatures will begin to rise, particularly in the hills and inland, becoming slightly above average for this time of year. Heat stress will intensify across most of the country.

Tuesday is forecast to remain partly cloudy to clear, with another slight increase in temperatures, especially in the hills and inland. Temperatures will continue to be higher than usual nationwide, with no significant change in the heavy heat stress conditions.
