Last year we had some of the issues with the rain. We had literally no water stored at all. And this created a lot of issues lately. Also the amount of issues we had due to lack of water were increasing. And now it seems this year we have lot of rain to deal with. The bridge nearby my place has collapsed and stopped the connection with one of the village. Also the amount of people missing due to rain is serious. Not a complete flood situation as of yet but it is getting serious. Hopefully things get back on track soon.I think rain needs to stop now.

that's good. if the water is enough for a year then it's better to have sunny days back.

There was lots of rain yesterday. Perhaps there will be rain tomorrow. There was a flood advisory. Stay dry and enjoy Hump day.

We have had a ton of rain in my hometown as well this year. The lake has been up for awhile now and the bridge that crosses over the lake has been flooded for about a week or two now. We had a lot of rain last year as well. We had some much that my garden didn't grow well because of it. The cucumbers didn't form properly.

I would prefer good rains to no rains at all, but yes excess of rains can also bring troubles, traffic jams, water entering houses, and water borne diseases.

yes more rains can be adjusted but not having rain means worst issues.

You don't say what country you are in - is it India? I'm pleased to live in England where we have a more equable climate.

The weather could be so erratic. In some places, there is no rain, and in your place there is so much!

While you are having too much rain in your area, we do not have much rain that it has been very hot in the past tweny days. Today it rained a little bit due to the arrival of the latest typhoon. I hope we would have a heavy rain very soon to cool the air.
