Heatwave Continues Early Week, Temperatures to Drop by Weekend

Israel is set to experience a continuation of summer-like weather early this week, with temperatures remaining higher than usual for this time of year, particularly in mountainous and inland areas. Significant heat stress is expected in some regions during the afternoon hours.

The weather pattern is forecast to remain largely unchanged on Monday and Tuesday, with continued high temperatures and heat stress. Monday morning may see some local cloud cover, but it is expected to dissipate, leading to clearer skies and a slight temperature increase, especially in the hills and interior.

Wednesday will also see the heat persist, with temperatures staying above the seasonal average and conditions remaining summery with noticeable heat stress in several areas during the hottest parts of the day.

A shift in the weather is anticipated starting Thursday, with a gradual decrease in temperatures expected. This cooling trend will bring a progressive easing of the heat stress, leading to more comfortable conditions.

By the weekend, the weather is predicted to become significantly milder and more pleasant compared to the beginning of the week. However, until Thursday, residents are advised to prepare for the ongoing hot weather, especially during the afternoon hours in inland and mountainous regions.
