It has been a rainy week. From my (completely unscientific) observations over the last few days, however, I am convinced that the rain bringing relief from the everyday heat is an illusion. My theory is that the temperature when it is raining is about the same as the average dry day in Singapore. I think that the rainstorm is actually preceded by an unbearably intense period of heat, thereby leading us to believe that the rain brings relief. If the rain were to not come in the first place, we would not receive that period of unbearable heat. Therefore, I conclude that the rain does not bring relief, the rain brings torture.
