Israel Weather Shifts to Cooler, Pleasant Conditions for Rosh Hashanah
Israel is set to experience a gradual shift towards more comfortable temperatures as the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, approaches and continues through the holiday weekend. The weather forecast indicates a slight drop in temperatures starting Thursday, bringing them back to seasonal norms across most regions, particularly in mountainous and inland areas.
On Friday, the eve of Rosh Hashanah, skies will clear after morning cloud cover, with a further slight decrease in temperatures expected. This pleasant weather pattern is predicted to persist through the first day of the holiday, Saturday, with no significant temperature changes.
Sunday, the second day of Rosh Hashanah, will begin with partly cloudy skies, transitioning to clear weather later in the day. A slight increase in temperatures is anticipated on Sunday.
Specific temperature ranges for major cities include Jerusalem and Mitzpe Ramon between 19-30 degrees Celsius (66-86 F). Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Ashkelon will see temperatures from 25-30 C (77-86 F), while Ashdod will range from 24-30 C (75-86 F). Afula is forecast to reach 21-34 C (70-93 F), and Be'er Sheva is expected to be the warmest, with temperatures between 21-35 C (70-95 F).
