In Mister Bijou's neighbourhood on a little island in the South China Sea at just after 3:pm yesterday, the electric power went down for about 25 minutes.
Sheets of heavy rain swept through the village streets, the trees swayed, the sky grew dark, the street-lights turned themselves on. People as well as feral cats and domesticated dogs scattered to shelter from the storm.
It was what Hong Kong Observatory is wont to call a squally thunderstorm.
For, oh, did it rain yesterday:
Such unseasonal weather. Rare, too. For how rare, please consult: Number of days with thunderstorm since 1947
