As the Rains Come Crashing Down

The soothing rain has finally hit Delhi and is here to feed the dry land and cool the air. I am sitting at my desk with my balcony door open listening to the rain crash down on the hundreds of houses below. It is incredibly humid but only 92 degrees; one of the first days that I have not used my AC.

We are lucky that the rain is not destructive as in other areas. I am hoping to see it in full force later this month in Bombay where the monsoons really come crashing down, flooding the streets, sending the rats to higher ground and the people to whatever shelter they can find.

It is refreshing, calming, relaxing, and good for all of the farms that have not had a proper monsoon in three years.
