This hills of Samaria on the west bank of the Jordan Valley have seen one of the wettest winters in many years. And this week, in the first time for several years, a snow storm swept through town.
. . . .The view from the street could have been anywhere in Canada.
. . . and from the Time Traveller's window . . . the snow remained until later in the day.
The Sea of Galilee – (also known as Lake Kinneret) had risen almost a meter by the end of January – and is probably up another meter since then. The Kinneret is the region’s only significant reservoir – except for the underground aquifers. The extra supplies received this winter will meet regional water needs until next autumn.
.. hasn't the snow melted yet?
