The rain outside my window is lashing past in horizontal lines, with sporadic puffs of mist.
Winds are banging doors and knocking articles off-balance. I can hear things crashing in other homes too.
I have never witnessed monsoon fury of this magnitude in my life.
Can this tiny, presumptuous, self-sufficient, seemingly unperturbed island really take so much rain? There are only 655 square kilometres.
I think it too might be starting to wonder if its perfect roads and banks and offices and drainage system can really handle the wrath of this monsoon.
