Interesting Psak: prayer for rain

After 20 days have passed with no rain Israel, and one on the horizon for the immediate future, Rav Yaakov Chaim Klein, the rav of Moshav Yesodot, has issued a psak calling on the public to add the special prayer for rain (VaAneinu Borei Olam...) in Shmoneh Esrei.

Rav Klein says that this outage of rain is unusual for this time of the year and this now has the status of a drought. Farmers are now even using watering systems to water their crops, which never had to be done at this time of the year.
