An extreme summer rain event is expected on the night between Saturday and Sunday, potentially causing flooding and hail along the northern coast, in Haifa, and the Sharon area. Experts warn of insufficient funding for drainage systems and call for a comprehensive national strategy to combat the climate crisis.

Ahead of a significant increase in heat loads, the head of the Meteorological Service, Dr. Amir Givati, said in an interview with the ynet studio: "The Galilee and Golan areas will be scorching." Relief is expected only on Tuesday, and a warning is issued to travelers: "Every small spark can turn into a big fire."
