Newsletter 29 - Raining All Day
Dear Tim,
As for my topic this time. All Taiwan has been raining all day now. You may have noticed that the stranded front will be wandering over Taiwan from yesterday to next Thursday. So the rain won't stop until next Thursday. And our shoes will be wet for 7 and more days. Hope the stranded front can leave our alone more quickly.

Samuel,
ReplyDeleteThese are called the "plum rains", and, the sad news is, that they are just the first part of the monsoon and typhoon season. Do you mean that it isn't true that everything in Taipei is covered with mold, and that if you live there long enough, you'll grow webbing between your toes, like a duck?
Are those just old folk tales from the dryer parts of Taiwan?
Consider the alternative: We'll be at about 113F today, and not rain until some time in July.
