Snow in Jerusalem

We have just finished with the most fierce storm that Israel has had in 20 years!  First we had wind and heavy rain, on Monday and Tuesday, then on Wednesday afternoon and evening, snow started to fall. Thursday was a no school day because of the continuing falling snow, and today Friday, there is also no school because of the snow that is on the ground.  It is very cold, and since this much snow has not fallen since the winter of 1992, when Jerusalem was snow-bound for three days, drivers do not have the extensive experience of winter conditions, the Ministry of Education has cancelled school today as well.
The Light Rail train is running, and yesterday it was free to ride the train, so that people would not be tempted to try to drive.
Enjoy your day off, and don't forget to cook and prepare for Shabbat!

The Traveling Hair Salon will take to the road on Sunday, so call now for your appointment for a Haircut, Color or a Facial!
