Rainy Season Starts?

There has been a lot of talk about 'the Rainy Season' for the last few weeks in school, but so far we've had nothing but hot, sunny weather. The students ahve left their blazers at home, some teachers have abandoned wearing ties, all the windows in the school are open and everyone keeps saying "atsui desu" every five minutes.

But today the sun has given way to rain. It's not quite monsoon proportions but it's enough to get you wet if you walk out in it. So far it's been raining non-stop for the last two hours and the teachers reckon it won't stop and that this will be the first day of the rainy season. So probably not the best day to come to school on my bike then.

Bugger.
