Lovely Monday Storm - September 22, 2008

It was a nice day. Pleasant from the very earliest time in the morning. It was good to be in office just because of the weather. There was practically no sun. The sky was cloudy. It suddenly started getting darker. A sheet of dark coloured clouds capped the sky.

It was a magnificent sight. It started to get windy and at the same time a drizzle was felt. The intensity of both the wind and the rain started increasing slowly. And then there was a sudden turn of events where the wind was strong and the rain was heavy. The combination of both presented a lovely sight to the onlookers. (But same cannot be said for the ones who were in direct range of this splatter.)

The way the wind was pushing the rain and the way the water droplets were resisting was simply amazing. This little pushing and pulling was giving rise to a light shower that was kissing the nearby spectators. Feeling the tiny droplets on the face was an amazing experience.

It's Raining

We didn't want to leave that scene and go back to the confinement of the four walls. But duty called so we had to leave from there. After enjoying ourselves for a while with this breath taking view and weather, we moved with heavy steps, from the entrance of Green Trust Tower, towards the flight of stairs, that would take us to the third floor.
