雨、雨、雨 (Rain, Rain, Rain)

　一昨日から当地、大阪・堺は雨続きである（1枚目の写真）。2枚目の写真のような夕焼けをしばらく見ない。雨続きは北陸出身の私にとって、いくらか懐かしい天候でもあるが、いまの私にはウォーキングの時間が取れないのが辛い。けさの TV ニュースまでは、来週の天気予報も曇りや雨が多いようだった。しかし、いまインターネットで気象庁の週間天気予報を見ると、月曜日からは晴れ間も出るようだ。

From two days ago, it is rainy in Sakai, Osaka, three consecutive days (the upper photo). These days, we do not see such an evening glow as in the lower photo. I was born in the Hokuriku Region, so that rainy days are a little nostalgic to me. However, such days are now inconvenient for me, because I cannot have time for walking exercise. Until this morning, the weather forecast of TV news told that it would be cloudy or rainy all through next week. However, a Web page of weather forecast by Japan Meteorological Agency now shows that there would be some intervals of clear weather available here after Monday.
