Here we get hail as big as baseballs, and i am absalutly not joking. We get them for about half hour, and then either everything is suddenly sunny, or it starts to rain and snow as well. It could have been worse. CHers, be thankful this dosent happen every day by you like it does nearly every day here.

at the very same time that ch was being pelted with hail, Rabbi Sholom Mordechai Halevi Ben Rivka Rubashkin was addressing the gathering for his son’s bar mitzva from PRISON.

Moshiach is in the air
October 12, 2010 7:06 am

There was no warning, and I hardly heard anything on the news before and after. My 11 year old was so excited, he thought, this is a sign of moshiach. With the weather during the day as hot as summer and a pile full of ice after, it reminds me of what Rabbi M Friedman said 30 years ago..’ when the weather is not usual, this is a sign of moshiach. Let us merit this with simcha and shalom.

was very cool to watch the hailstorm, but so sad that someone was killed 🙁
