Pretty rainy

If you are like me, the whole idea of 'rainy season' does not really mean much. Does it rain all day, for part, or not really much? A drizzle, a downpour, nothing? Well...I just snaped a few pictures to help everyone out. We are still pretty early into the rainy season but this is what we have seen so far (keep in mind the heaviest rain is in October).

1. In the morning, there is usually a bit of sun poking through

2. By 10am, things start getting cloudy.

3. By 1pm, it usuallys starts raining.

4. Sometime in the afternoon, it usually rains like this for at least an hour:

Some days it rains so hard that our back patio drainage begins to flood. You can actually see that happening in this little movie below. When this happens, water starts coming into our kitchen. To prevent flooding we have to jam a towel under the door. I honestly do not even know how this door is still in one piece if it gets this much exposure to water.





Towel preventing *some* water from coming in the door.



5. Somtimes is sprinkles all night, but usually it stops by about 7 or 8.

6. The process repeats.
