No rain rainy season

Well, it seems that I was a bit premature in my welcome of the rainy season as it has now dried up and we are being treated to a rainy season that consists of brief showers and spits of rain for only part of the day. This is something else that we can probably thank our American cousins and their love of all things CO2 producing for. The weather is really strange this year as the temperature has suddenly soared to mid summer heights in June and the reservoirs are half empty. Meanwhile, the other side of the country, on the Japan Sea coast is being deluged and suffering from severe flooding. Thanks Mr. Bush, please sign the Kyoto Protocol anytime the flood waters start lapping around your neck, (just where I'd like to place my hands and squeeze).
