A Tropical Hello

I'm not writing from the tropics but it certainly feels like it.

Two weeks ago I thought summer had started in Mersin and the usual 4-5 months of hot, rain-free but humid weather were lying ahead. However, recent weather has swapped between a) non-stop rain with a mild temperature, b) threatening clouds and c) a fiercely hot sun. Humidity is the omnipresent partner of all 3 patterns. I swear Mersin has received 3 times its average May rainfall already.

I've never experienced tropical weather this persistent in Mersin. I'm not complaining as I know the never-ending summer is just around the corner...
