Rio is suffering under heavy rainfall. The heavyest rainfalls ever recorded, have plunged the city into chaos since yesterday. It took me 6 hours to come back from work. Traffic had collapsed, due to flooded neighbourhoods. Landslides have claimed several lifes.Work was called off today, in the early morning. Good and wise decision, since the pouring rain didn't stop since then. Another difficult night is to be expected.

Seems erratic and extreme weather abounds, along with quakes and other phenomena. Just coming out of a record breaking winter in the Philadephia area, today we've had unprecedented high temps, in the high 80's today and into the 90's tomorrow. Summer before spring. Seems mother nature is not too happy
Good thing you are building a boat, Peter!
Hi Thomas,
yes, we all need to review our attitudes towards the consumption of resources and the protection of our environment.
Michael,
the way things go I should be building an Arch! Much stronger and robust than Arpex. But being able to float is already a benefit.
Cheers,
Peter
