Meteorological Service Warns of Significant Rainfall After Heatwave
Following a period of unusually warm and dry weather, Israel is expected to experience significant rainfall starting Friday morning and continuing through Saturday evening, primarily in the northern and central regions. The Israeli Meteorological Service has issued a warning that the rains could be substantial, with potential accumulations of 5-10 millimeters in some areas. This amount is considerably higher than the average September rainfall for these regions, which typically stands at only 2-3 millimeters.
Until the rain arrives, the weather will remain hotter and drier than usual for this time of year. Temperatures in the coming days are forecast to reach 33-35 degrees Celsius in the Jerusalem hills and 37-38 degrees Celsius in the coastal plain, accompanied by very low humidity levels.
A sharp drop in temperatures is anticipated on Friday, coinciding with the shift in weather patterns and the onset of the rains. The article also provides a list of expected evening temperatures across various Israeli cities.
