After morning clouds disperse, fair skies are expected across Israel today. A slight drop in temperatures will bring moderate heat stress in most areas, but the Dead Sea Basin, Jordan Valley, and Arava will see extreme heat stress — severe in the southern Golan, northern valleys, Kinneret Valley, Judean Desert, and eastern Negev, according to the weather forecast.
The day will open with fair skies after morning clouds clear. While most of the country sees only a slight dip in temperatures to seasonal norms, the heat stress map is sharply divided: moderate stress across the coastal plain and mountains, but extreme and severe levels in the eastern rift and southern desert areas. The forecast explicitly warns of extreme-to-severe heat stress in the Jordan Valley, Arava, and eastern Negev — a familiar pattern for this time of year but a real health risk for vulnerable populations and outdoor workers. As The Zioneer reported in its most recent SAME-THREAD forecast (Thursday early morning), the slight cooling trend that began midweek continues, but the geographic extremes remain.
