When it rains it plouas





Everyone from Chicago is familiar with the Morton Salt tag line,  When it rains, It Pours.  Well here in Moldova we say when it rains, it plouas (plo-ahs).  As you may have guessed the verb to rain is "ploua".  And we had one blast of a rain storm here last Sunday night.  Living in Wisconsin has taught me to watch those cloud fronts for the formation of funnel clouds.  You can see from the pictures here that the potential was there.  It was quite blowy and the electircity went out for about 24 hours.  The last picture is the same scene one day later.  Again quite pleasant an sunny.  O zie buna [have a nice day]
