Local rains are forecast across Israel on Tuesday, Election Day for the 26th Knesset. While much of the country will be cloudy, the rain may be intense but brief, potentially allowing voters to cast ballots without significant disruption. However, authorities are concerned about flash floods in southern and eastern Israel, urging the public to avoid travel in these areas. Temperatures are expected to reach 23 degrees Celsius in Jerusalem, 26 in Tel Aviv, 24 in Haifa, 27 in Beersheba, and up to 29 degrees in Eilat.
