Northern regions like the Galilee and Golan Heights will see partly cloudy and pleasant conditions with mild warming in the afternoon. Haifa and the Carmel region will experience variable cloudiness, while areas such as Sharon, Gush Dan, and the Shephelah might see morning drizzles. Jerusalem and the central mountains will be cool in the morning, becoming pleasant later in the day. The Negev and Beersheba are expected to have comfortable weather with partial cloud cover.
