Update from the Temple Mount: Snow Fall in Jerusalem

 

In a rare event, snow fell in the Old City of Jerusalem and on the Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif on Feb 18, 2021.  This happens on occasions.  On February 6, 1950, Jerusalem recorded nearly 24 inches of snow; of more recent memory is December 13, 2013, when Jerusalem was covered with 12 inches of snow.

As the recent cold arctic blasts have brought down the snow to areas such as Jerusalem, Israel, and even Texas, USA, there is something wonderfully hidden in the geometry of the snowflake.  Sometimes you can see what looks like the holy of holies.  Structures that come from above down to earth, structures not made with human hands.  

Snow is seen over Jerusalem and on the Dome of the Rock, located on the compound known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary and to Jews as the Temple Mount on Feb 18, 2021.
