the prospect is wet: meteorologists predict heavy rainfall for my hometown, up to 100mm within 24 hours, which means flooding of many secondary roads and potential damage to the railways, too.

in the long term, i guess it’s better to get used to weather extremes as this might be the future: the climate change will come not as a steady increase of temperatures but as more unstable weather conditions that challenge the vital infrastructure. but probably in a week or so the cat will dance on a hot tin roof again.
