Israeli Meteorological Service Forecasts Hot Week Ahead with Possible Rain Next Saturday
Dr. Amir Givati, head of the Israeli Meteorological Service, spoke in an interview with ynet about the upcoming weather conditions. He forecasted a week hotter than usual for Israel, though not reaching the extreme heat seen in Europe. Dr. Givati highlighted that after the heatwave ends around Thursday or Friday, temperatures are expected to drop significantly.
Looking further ahead, he mentioned the possibility of rain next Saturday, which is unusual for August. While not expecting heavy rainfall, this would mark a shift from the typical summer weather, signaling a transition toward cooler conditions. He cautioned that the rain forecast is still tentative, as it is six to seven days away and subject to change.
Dr. Givati emphasized the rarity of rain in August, noting it is not yet autumn or winter, but the meteorological models suggest more than just a drizzle. The public is advised to stay tuned for updates as the situation develops.
