I would like to see what the weather is like in your countries

This is not a discussion on whether per say. I will tell you about where I grew up and where I live now. I grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I do not know if any of you have heard of it. It is in the midwestern part of the United States and 8 hours by car from Chicago, IL. It seems like winter lasts forever and summer is very short. It is very very cold there. They do not shut anything down unless there is real blizzard conditions. It is very cold outside, but, inside it is very hot. I remember I had to open the window because it is so was so hot in my apartment. Now, here in Israel our winter season is when it rains. We get rain at times other times of the year too. We have different climates here in the country. We have Eilat in the South where alot of people like to go to get away from winter. It snows on the Hermon which is a mountain in the Golan which is in the North for skiing. In Jerusalem we get snow and things close down. We have had winters where we did not have electricity for a certain amount of time and no phone and no water. It was not nice because here it is cold both inside and outside. In my building we have to provide our own heating. I have a radiator that I was move from room to room and a heater. It is not as cold as Minneapolis, but, it can get cold here. I remember learning Hebrew in one place in the winter and they had one small heater and it was only in the front and I sat in the back and it was very cold. I would like to hear what the weather is like in your countries.
