Israeli Forecasters are so foreboding, yet mysterious: "'The winter is far from over,' said Shlomo Oberman. 'This was not the last rain: on the Sabbath a new cold front will come in with more rain and also next week there will be rain. It's not over until it's over. We started the winter in a depressing way and we are ending it with large quantities of rain, particularly in the north. In Haifa, where the average rainfall is 530 millimeters (almost 2.1 inches), 558 have already fallen,' Oberman said happily, 'and in Rosh Pina, 560 have fallen where the average is 507.'" — INN
