Storm Byron is approaching Israel, bringing heavy rain, strong winds, and a significant risk of flooding. After causing severe damage in Greece and Cyprus, the storm is expected to hit Israel in full force on Wednesday, with up to 20 centimeters of rain forecasted in some areas. The Israel Meteorological Service has issued warnings to avoid flood-prone regions, particularly in the Negev and Judean deserts, and advised against swimming in the Mediterranean due to dangerous waves. Residents are urged to prepare for challenging weather conditions, with the worst expected on Wednesday night and Thursday before the storm passes by Friday.
