Israel Issues Yellow Warning for Thunderstorms and Lightning

The adverse weather conditions were expected to last from 10:00 AM until 2:00 PM on Tuesday. During this four-hour window, volatile storm clouds and lightning strikes were possible in various regions of the country. The weather system moved in a north and north-northeastern direction at a speed of approximately 20 kilometers per hour, prompting the official warning due to the highly unstable weather.

The yellow warning level signifies that the weather conditions may pose a danger and require heightened attention from the public. Consequently, authorities and the Meteorological Service urged residents to monitor official updates from relevant agencies and to exercise caution when planning travel and outdoor activities.

During the active thunderstorms, residents were specifically advised to exercise special caution outdoors. This included recommendations to avoid open spaces entirely and to refrain from seeking shelter under isolated trees, as any changes to the weather situation depended on the further movement of the storm clouds.
