Thursday December 12, Friday December 13, Saturday December 14 2013 Snow in Jerusalem

Tarek said it has been about 15 years since he experienced a storm like this in Jerusalem. Usually it snows and little for one day and then blows out.

Our first snow of the season, looking at the Old City from our apartment on Thursday.

It snowed during the night, so we had even more on Friday morning.

 The wet snow broke some tree limbs outside our apartment in the hallway on Friday morning.. There are pans set out in the hallway to catch leaks coming into the building.

 It snowed all day Friday. Students built an igloo on the 7th floor balcony, overlooking Jerusalem. This was our view during church on Saturday.

After church, we drove Carmen Lesoby home to Ma'ale Adumin, about a 15 minute drive into the West Bank.  There was some snow on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives but none in the West Bank.
