    Meanwhile, the Golan Heights region was frozen over, as snow flurries blew in throughout the North and along the central mountains. Light snow was expected in the Negev mountains.

    Residents of the North were already encountering their own wintry mess on Wednesday and Thursday.

    Rain poured from the North to the Negev throughout the day on Thursday, and the precipitation continued, in a more scattered form, on Friday, according to the Israel Meteorological Service.
