Little by very little, the Kinneret Sea is coming close to filling up. Following the weekend\'s heavy rains, the level of the Sea of Galilee - the country\'s largest reservoir - stands at 213.32 meters below sea level, about a half-meter above its lowest level a few months ago. The government-authorized \"red line\" is 213 meters below sea level. When the level drops below that, some experts fear irreversible damage to water quality by plant-growth accumulation and sediments. The optimum level of the Kinneret is 209 meters below sea level.
Snow is forecast for Jerusalem, Hevron, and Tsfat, as well as mountains that are at least 700 meters high. Rain and stormy weather is forecast for most of the country over the next few days.
