Rains Contrasted

This is probably a lame post on weather phenomenon but…I really have to tell you about the two extreme types of rain:

Vancouver:

[Day 1] Getting cloudy…maybe it’ll rain soon.
[Day 2] Hmm…the skies really are getting very dark…oh, did I just feel a drizzle?
[Day 3 Morning] Oh my god…it’s raining…wanna sleep in and skip class!
[Day 4 Afternoon] It’s still raining…WTH
[Day 5 Evening] I think the rain is stopping…where’s the sun…?

Singapore:

[Hour 1] Sunny Singapore
[Hour 1.5] Ahhh my notes are flying away (wind picks up while studying outside)
[Hour 1.75] Here comes the downpour!!! Run for the nearest dry table.
[Hour 2] It’s over already?? I wish it lasted a bit longer to cool the air down more… =)

Picture of the National University of Singapore campus when it’s raining.  It probably was sunny just an hour ago and will be again soon.  The blue-top orange buses are the shuttle buses that take people around the campus.  Service not affected by weather.

Stay dry my friends…rainy season coming up in both cities!
