It might be just a rare event. The effect of Global warming are a bit far reaching for as to make a conclusion that the weather is back to normal. Im sure during that time, there was total dryness in January, but this year, it was nothing of the sort. It was rain from Dec through Jan-Feb_mar_apr... So I think its quite early to make an explicit declaration of a normal weather condition coming back.
Many years ago the heavy rains towards easter meant one more thing :
the Safari Rally. The current heavy rains bring back wonderful
memories of those days either as service crew or spectators. There was
a time when Group B cars such as the Audi Quattro, Peugeot 205T16
works would compete at International level right in this country. Then
came the Group A with Lancia Integrale, Ford Cosworth, Opel and
others. It used to be an experience to drive over 3000kms in just 4
days with some of the Teams, in some real tough terrian. And what
would the Rally be without Chulu Hills where radiators got pasted with
mud or elephant grass causing cars to over heat or rivers burst banks
within a matter of hours or driving in the cherengani hills with fog
hanging over the slippery trails. Kenya needs its rally status back.
The natural tropical weather is back and sorry to those who will be
affected by it but the good news is the weather is in its form.
Corrections welcome.
