Israel is set to experience significantly warmer weather than usual starting Thursday, with temperatures expected to rise and humidity to decrease, particularly in mountainous and inland areas. Strong northerly winds will blow along the coastal plain in the afternoon, and dust is possible in the south. The warmer trend will continue into Friday, with a further temperature increase and a heatwave expected in most parts of the country, leading to increased heat stress. Strong easterly winds will blow in the north and central mountains in the morning, shifting to strong northerly winds along the coast in the afternoon.
On Saturday, skies will be partly cloudy with a temperature drop, especially in the coastal plain, the lowlands, and the northern Negev. Despite the decrease, temperatures will remain above average in most regions. Strong northerly winds will persist along the coast in the afternoon.
By Sunday, the weather will remain partly cloudy with a further temperature decrease, bringing temperatures back to seasonal norms and alleviating heat stress. Forecasted high temperatures for Thursday include Jerusalem at 27°C, Tel Aviv at 28°C, Haifa at 27°C, and Eilat at 32°C.
