Israel is preparing for the arrival of Storm Byron, which is expected to bring intense rainfalls, stormy winds and plunging temperatures.
The Health Ministry said it has warned hospitals and clinics to prepare, while telling parents of young children, as well as the elderly, to take particular care.
The public is advised to check on elderly people who are living alone and to look out for cases of hypothermia. Additionally, they should try and stay active and warm indoors.
“Winds will reach speeds of 90 km per hour in some places, with significant rain expected, the likes of which we have not seen,” Sgt. Yossi Deklo, from the Israeli Fire and Rescue Services told Kan News.
