Jerusalem Climate

Perched on the Judean Hills at around 750 m elevation, Jerusalem has a highland Mediterranean climate with dry summers and wet winters. Summers (June to September) are sunny, dry and warm at 28–31°C by day, with notably cooler evenings thanks to the altitude, while winters (December to February) are cool and rainy at 9–13°C, occasionally bringing snow when cold air pushes down from the north. Nearly all rain falls in winter, leaving the long summer almost entirely dry. This page provides an hourly and 14-day forecast along with detailed metrics including humidity, wind, UV index and air quality (AQI).
