This morning we had our first rain in a fortnight. The ground was so dry that although we had more than 50mm of rain, it did not overflow as the ground absorbed more and more water.
It was a long awaited rain, a blessing.
But before noon, the sky was completely blue and the usual terrible heat returned.
今朝は2週間ぶりに雨らしい雨が降りました. 大地はからからに乾いていたので、50mm以上降りましたが、地面がどんどん雨水を吸い込んで、あふれるようなことはありませんでした.
待望の雨、恵みの雨でした.
でも、お昼前にはすっかり青空になって、いつものひどい暑さが戻ってしまいました.
The rain gauge measuring up to 50mm was overflowing. 50ミリまで測れる雨量計はあふれていました. |
