Israel is experiencing a return to rising temperatures following a brief period of milder weather. Starting Wednesday, temperatures will increase notably, especially in the mountainous regions and inland areas, while coastal areas will remain hot and humid but with less dramatic changes. Morning skies will begin with some clouds that will dissipate as the day progresses, leading to hotter conditions.

Thursday will bring further temperature increases, with heat levels becoming unusually high for this time of year across the interior and mountainous zones, accompanied by heavy to extreme heat stress. The peak of the heatwave is expected on Friday, marking the hottest day of the week with continued extreme heat conditions.

By Saturday, temperatures will slightly decrease but remain above average for the season. Meteorologists predict that this warm trend will persist through the end of August, maintaining higher-than-normal temperatures across the country.

The forecast highlights the need for caution during this period of intense heat, particularly in areas prone to extreme temperature spikes.
