Regarding the heavy rain today night.

Today at about eight o clock in the evening it started to rain heavily
and it continued non stop for another one and half hours, I haven't
watched this kind of intense down pour for a decade now. It was
spectacular, with the thunder and lightning strikes, in all this I was
also listening to the running commentary between india and england in
the radio, and it was a nail biting session of one day cricket, it was a
very tense one dayer where india won by two wicket with only two balls
to spare. The rain spray is coming from south west. I down loaded some
columns from the rediff web page and just now read completely them.
