Weather It Is (A WARM Thank You to "Superdeal"

Good Evening:

On Monday, the air was so still and warm that even the Mediterranean stood still.  It was almost like a lake.  There was even a "mirage:"  it appeared that the tents covering the beach were actually out at sea.

The weather turned windier in the afternoon, and winds have continued to blow strongly.  There will be a bit of a moisture push on Thursday, which may lead to scattered tropical showers.  Moreover, temperatures should be headed down a bit as the week rounds out.

However, while temperatures are cooling nearer to the surface, they will be warming aloft after Thursday. This means that the atmosphere is stabilising; of course we are headed into summer.

I'd like to mention that we had a bit of a topsy turvy last few months.  After a very large amount of winter rain, we turned more dry and windy, with occasional bouts of warm and then cold weather. Apparently, this type of weather was quite favourable for our vegetables.  For the first time in Israel (courtesy of the Superdeal in Efrat), I ate sweet corn, and sweet Sugar Snap peas.  I also made caramelised shallots. So, I have to thank Superdeal for making the effort to bring us the blessings of our winter/spring. Perhaps, as I was told that Rabbi Shalom Gold said, there was just enough weather for everyone.
