He showers down snow? In Israel?

I've always had the impression that they didn't have That Sort of Weather in that part of the world. So where does the psalmist get his familiarity with it?

He showers down snow white as wool,
he scatters hoar-frost like ashes.
He hurls down hailstones like crumbs.
The waters are frozen at His touch...


Are there any weather geeks out there who care to reply?
