Rainy weekend: tens of millimeters of rain and fears of flooding
Published
A strong rain system is expected to arrive in Israel at the end of the week. According to reports, the peak will be on Saturday, and within a few hours tens of millimeters of rain may fall. This is a very large amount in a short time.
Due to the heavy rainfall, there is concern about flooding. The areas that may be especially affected are the central coast and the Shephelah. During flooding, water collects on the roads, inside houses, and in low-lying places, so drivers need to be careful and slow down while driving.
It is important to know that the weather can change, so it is advisable to follow the forecast and the announcements of local authorities and emergency services. Anyone traveling at the end of the week should plan their time carefully.
The heavy rain comes after a period when the weather was relatively stable. It may bring relief to some water sources, but it can also cause damage and traffic problems. Therefore, it is recommended to stay updated and be careful.
