Saigon Rain in January???

Submitted by on Friday, January 18, 2008 – 10:52 am4 Comments |

The weather has been really strange in Saigon lately. For the last three days, it has actually rained which is unheard of in Saigon. It is supposed to be the dry season. Normally the last sprinkle ends in late November. The next rainfall starts around May.

I was riding my motorbike to District 1 from District 5 when I got caught in the rain yesterday. In 5 minutes, I was soaked so I had to head home to dry off (where is my rain poncho?).

Global warming? It looks like local Vietnamese scientists are beginning to acknowledge that there is a problem with the climate warming.
