ReplyDeleteኣሰá‹! That is great news. This time of the year, there shouldn't be any crop damage.
ReplyDeleteMore snow means more ground water and streams .As long as it did not damage any crop it is good for Asmara .
ReplyDeleteGood hope for the coming rainy season!
ReplyDeleteLuckily for now is what you said, but In future is something we need to take care of, cause we'll use irrigation in agriculture, the harvest might be in different period than now..
ReplyDeleteNo, it should rain at least 5 or 6 times in February.
ReplyDeleteWe need to have a great dam at Asmara environs to accumulate and cover the usage of water for the habitants, organise the people and amend the dranage system to make this water run to nearest dams. The longer the problem stay unresolved, it might damage the old and remarkable buildings of the city.
ReplyDeleteSystematical use of every drop for greener Eritrea!
