The Rainy Season


Depending on where you are in Israel, you can get anywhere from 1-28 inches of rain a year. Jerusalem sits around 24. The rain starts mid November and then doesn't stop all winter. Welcome to my new life. The rains have started early this year, and right now it is pouring outside. The rain is currently flooding the Hinnom and the bridge that goes along with it. Cars are still driving on it, which is crazy to me. While this is a good example of how a Wadi should work, I kind of feel bad for them. I took a picture for your viewing pleasure.
Welcome to my newer, damper life.

Hey Claire! It could be worse. We had snow yesterday (Oct. 28). I had to clean almost 2 inches off the car at 7:30 am. Parts of the Poconos got a foot!

Stay healthy, stay safe and stay dry,
