Weird Weather

We've been getting tropical cyclone kind of winds since Sunday... it's due to a low pressure system which developed around the GC and a high pressure system just south of us... this results in a tight pressure gradient which causes the gale force winds... wind speeds were up to 100km/hr and it was a nightmare trying to go out...

it's been day 5 and the rains are still battering down.. here's a pic of the latest rain pattern...
