The wintry weather that has accompanied the last few days will continue into the night (Tuesday) with showers that have fallen at times and will be accompanied by thunderstorms and strong winds, especially in the north of the country and on the coastal plain.

There is a serious fear that the rain will lead to flooding in the coastal plain and lowland settlements.



Tomorrow will be cooler than the last few days, and the temperatures will be lower than usual for the season.

The weather will be stormy and strong winds will blow.

It will also rain intermittently, which will also be accompanied by thunderstorms in the center of the country and in the north.

Later in the day the rain is expected to spread to the Negev.

The rains may lead to flooding in the eastern and southern streams, and flooding in the coastal plain and lowlands.
