Terrential Rains In Lome

Yesterday we had rain storm of epic purportions. Thunder and heavy rain. Roads were washed out and we had power blackouts throughout the day. Because the water was so high it knocked out power to our air conditioners and our water pump. Two things I'd rather not do without. For the people of Lomé this was just another day in the rainy season.
