Weather It Is (A Storm Arrives)

Good Afternoon:

A storm is located over the southern Mediterranean. It has characteristics of a Red Sea trough but will actually become a closed low just north of Sinai during the next 24 hours.  It will bring the chance of tropical showers in the south and possibly the Jerusalem area later today.  There will also be strong winds.

The storm will continue to spin tomorrow and with it the chance of showers as well.

By late on Thursday, however, cold air will filter in at all atmospheric levels and the storm will intensify and move eastward across our coast.  With it should come heavier rain with the possibility of flooding in flood prone areas, including city locations and the Dead Sea and Jordan Valleys.

The cold air will continue its grip well into next week, and the global model are indicating that rain amounts will be generally increasing across our country through this time period. In fact, there is a 25% chance that an even stronger winter storm will arrive mid next-week.
