Israel Weather

Israel Weather - Excellent sunshine record
Weather in Israel is dry, hot and sunny and rainfall is relatively low even during winter months. Although 60% of Israel's land mass comprises desert, there are mountainous regions that provide a cooler, more comfortable climate. The north has a typical Mediterranean outlook with long and hot summer days and mild winters where rain can fall in heavy spells but is neither prolonged nor frequent. Coastal heat can feel oppressive in the height of summer although cooling sea breezes bring some comfort. In the south, the landscape becomes parched and dry and rainfall here is low.
