I had a little email discussion with a friend from Vancouver last night. I had to send a screen capture from my weather app. It showed a 0% chance of precipitation for each of the next seven days. Of course, it was raining there. The part that I didn't boast about is that the image I sent should work for each week of the next four months. I do love the sun!
Mohammed, our host, said that last year there wasn't any rain at all. He did relate a story from about 6 or 7 years ago. There was a bit of hail. Nobody here had ever seen ice falling from the sky in their lives and were scared by it. Perhaps they thought it was the end of the world. Even a little hail in Luxor, compared to the weather at home during December, would seem like heaven to me.
