The biggest lesson we can learn from this in Chutz Lo’Oretz for future years is to commence veSein Tal uMotor on marChehvon 7th and not wait all the way thru December 4th, because no sooner than Chutz loOretz commenced recital of veSain Tal uMotor, and the rains commenced in Israel for real.
Of-course the other lesson learned from this is how vital our prayers are for Eretz Yisroel, and how much more focused we must remain on Eretz Yisroel.
