83-Year Old Record Falls
Historic Heat Wave: November 2025 Set to Be One of the Hottest on Record as Temperature Records Shatter Across Israel
Temperature records dating back over 75 years were shattered across major Israeli cities and settlements, confirming that November 2025 is shaping up to be one of the warmest Novembers on record due to an unusually intense and prolonged heat wave.
November 2025 is shaping up to be one of the warmest Novembers in Israel's history, with temperature records; some dating back over 75 years, breaking across major cities and various regions. The current heat wave is particularly notable not just for its intensity but also for its unusually long duration.
The most intense heat peaked today, with the last 24 hours predicted to be the hottest November day on record in certain areas. While temperatures are expected to cool slightly starting tomorrow, inland regions are forecast to remain significantly warmer than the seasonal average until next week.
Records Broken According to the Meteorological Service
The following are some of the historical temperature records shattered across Israel, as reported by the Meteorological Service:
Long-Term Heat and Outlook
The Meteorological Service highlighted that the frequency with which heat records are being broken annually suggests an accelerating warming trend.
The current heat wave is distinguished by its longevity, persisting across the region for an extended period that is highly unusual for November. While some coastal areas and northern regions may experience a slight drop in temperatures beginning tomorrow, conditions in the inland parts of the country are expected to remain unseasonably high, well above the typical average for this time of year, until the following week.
Historical records for November temperatures are being fundamentally rewritten in both urban centers and regional settlements, cementing November 2025 as a benchmark year for extreme late-season heat.
