Is that Ave. Luperon in Santo Domingo or Luperon on the north coast? That's about exactly what has happened in Santo Domingo Oeste. The ground is saturated.

You don't have to shovel it. Quit your bitchin'.

Exactly.

Why do you think it is so green here?

There was a drought on the north coast just a short time ago.

The rains in the evening do put a damper on some outside gigs my band plays, but that is about it for me.

Has anybody seen reports of crop damage?



Haven’t read anything specific, but when I went to local roadside veggie stand and was surprised at the price of onions, I was told it was because of all the rain damaging crops. 60 pesos a pound is very steep price for campesinos to pay.

Out cleaning up the yard after the dogs and this morning like every other in recent memory, there is standing water on portions of the grass and those that look dry squish and ooze up when stepped on.

The only saving grace is that the showers are just that, short lived showers and not sustained rainfall.

I found it you wait long enough a hard rain washes away the dog poop
