Last night, after writing my last post, it finally rained. And what rain - a real tropical storm. I was out buying train tickets at Okhla station, and while I waiting it started raining. After fifteen minutes, the streets around the station were flooded. The dirt roads had at least a few inches of water rushing down them.

Some of the power lines must have been knocked out, so the whole area around the station was blacked out. I ended up wading through ankle deep water with who knows what floating through it in the dark. Serves me right for wishing it would rain.
