Israel‘s winter weather is variable, Some winters are very cold and rainy, and the winter of 2019 was very rainy and snowy in the north region such as the Golan Heights but on the other hand, The south region remained dry.

While other winters can be sunny and mild.

 

The temperatures range from January till March are in the 50-60 F or 11-15 C in most places but lower in the mountains such as the area of Jerusalem, Galilee, or the Golan Heights.

 

 

Israel’s summer temperatures are in the high  80’-90’(27-33 C) range, Many cities especially near the sea can be very humid such as Tel Aviv, Haifa, or the Sea of Galilee. Jerusalem weather will be cooler since the city is located in the mountains, the south region including the Dead Sea, Negev desert, and Eilat will be extremely hot even During the night And the average temperature will be around 100-115F or 40-45C.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the best time To travel and probably the best weather in Israel during the year, During the day the temperatures are around 60-70 F(17-24 C), the temperature in Tel Aviv will be normal and average, and Jerusalem will be a little colder, the Dead Sea and Eilat will be warmer but still pleasant.
