Private Tours Hong Kong | A typical rainy day in Hong Kong

Doing what I do I hate rainy days, 26th July 2013 - a typical rainy day, 2 or 3 quite heavy showers, 6.5cm of rain in 24 hours and lots of horrible drizzle

Yuk! 

Yuk! 

We get a lot of rain in Hong Kong and this week is typical, yesterday was our 3rd day in a row of heavy rain and depressing is not quite the right word, doing what I do rain is a challenge but luckily we get heavy showers with drizzle in between.. funny how the heaviest rain is ALWAYS between 8am - 9am and 6pm - 7pm as people are heading to or leaving work!  

6.5cm rain is quite a fair bit... in the past few months we have had days where we have had 25cm of rain in 24 hours so yesterday wasn't that bad! 

Anyway, here are some images from a typical Hong Kong rainy day,
