Ahead of scheduled rain forecasts for shabbos in Eretz Yisroel that did not materialize, parts of Central Eretz Yisroel received a good washing on erev shabbos. As the dust was swept away and the trees rustled in the wind on Moshav Matityahu, children in neighboring Kiryat Sefer had fun playing in the rain, as adults going about their shabbos preparations found creative ways to deal with the downpour. May this year bring a lot of rain to Eretz Yisroel.
