Yes it did rain very heavily in western Kenya last night. There were loud bangs of thunder and I could feel vibration on my earthen bed. I am glad however that it was over by 2:00 am and I was able to go to the farm at 3 am. Furthermore, it was good rain because it had very little destruction. Even power outage was not experienced. So I was able to begin my cyber work on time. It has been a busy day and as I write, it is already 5:30 pm, evening of 17.04.2026.
I hope you're all well my friends.

Thank you. I hope you will be safe. Storms can be really tormenting.

I'm happy for you that the storms weren't destructive. Hopefully, your area needed the rain. Where I live in the southeastern United States, we are in an extreme drought and desperately need rain.
