In Tanzania, the light rains are supposed to arrive in October. However, with the increasing climate changes that is not the case anymore. October and November were both dry. Now in January, when it supposed to be dry, there are some really heavy rains. This means that when people are trying to get their land ready for the heavy rains in March, they are getting washed out. Subsistance farming is an even more risky business than it ever was.
Anyway, some days it absolutely chucks it down.
Although, it does remind me of Scotland in some ways. If you don't like the weather, just wait fifteen minutes and you might like it then.
