When it Rains, it Pours

I shot this video mostly to capture the sound, as it's really hard to film rain. It tends to rain particularly hard these days at night and in the morning. But right now, it's 11:30 a.m., and I've been watching it rain for three hours straight. Good thing I went grocery shopping yesterday.

Thanks for the rain video,. I remember the rainy season in Sierra Leone well. The Mende had a saying for heavy rains, such as in your video clip, which roughly translates "this rain is not joking."

Enjoy your year in Sierra Leone.
