Scorching Temperatures Expected Across Israel for Rosh Hashanah Holiday
Israel is bracing for a significant heatwave, with temperatures set to rise sharply across the country starting Sunday, coinciding with the Rosh Hashanah holiday. The forecast indicates clear to partly cloudy skies throughout the week. Following a slight dip in temperatures on Friday, with readings remaining seasonal, Saturday is expected to see no significant change. However, by Sunday, a noticeable increase in temperatures is predicted, particularly in the mountains and inland areas, leading to conditions hotter than average for this time of year and an increased heat load.
Monday is forecast to be clear after morning clouds dissipate, with temperatures remaining relatively stable. The heatwave is expected to affect various cities, with predicted highs including Eilat at 28°C (82°F), Tel Aviv at 23°C (73°F), Jerusalem at 20°C (68°F), and Beersheba at 20°C (68°F). Other forecast temperatures include Beit She'an at 24°C (75°F), Haifa at 23°C (73°F), Tiberias at 22°C (72°F), Lod at 22°C (72°F), and Safed at 20°C (68°F).
