Kinds of Weather

Rainy

During rainy weather, the clouds are dark and it rains continuously. Sometimes the rains are accompanied by strong winds. In low places, continuous rains result in flooding. Thus, it is advisable to stay indoors unless it is truly necessary for you to go out in this weather. Indoor activities like watching television, playing board games, and reading can be done during this kind of weather.

Hot soups and similar food can help warm you up during rainy days. Wear thick clothes like jackets and pants. If you must go out, remember to take an umbrella or wear a raincoat or thick jacket. When you have to walk through flooded areas, wear rubber boots to help keep your feet clean and dry.

Stormy

Strong winds and heavy rains characterize stormy weather. Oftentimes, these are accompanied by rumbles of thunder and flashes of lightning. Very strong storms even uproot trees and blow away houses and other structures of light materials. When the rains fall continuously for several days, many places end up flooded. Obviously, it is not safe to go outside in this weather.

It is advised that you be prepared for emergencies during stormy weather. It is important to get updates on the weather by listening to the radio or watching television news programs. Before a storm strikes, every household should have prepared its supply of candles and matches and checked flashlights and rechargeable lamps to ensure a source of light in case of brownouts.

Soups and other hot food provide warmth and comfort on stormy days. The temperature drops during these days so thicker clothes can help keep you warm.
