We've had the rainiest Dec and Jan, actually all of the fall and all of this year, since I've been coming here (15 years) and definitely since I've been living here (6 years). It's a common subject among those who have been here all their lives so it really is different. I guess if this is what global warming has in store for us it is better than drought, I keep wondering if we will become a true tropics instead of a dry seasonal tropics. My adeniums have not gone dormant but they are all in pots, they have lost a lot of leaves and it may be that the seedlings I think are suffering from the attentions of my male dog are really just getting too much regular rain, not yellow rain.
