No Warning

I can't remember if this is how it was in Indiana or Boston, but in Japan, the seasons start suddenly. For example, three days ago I was wearing long sleeves and pants. Yesterday the temperature jumped to 28 C (don't ask what it is in F cause I don't know), and it's not going back down, they say.

Tsuyu, rainy season, will start the same way. A week or so from now, the sky will turn grey and the rain will pour down without warning. I'm debating whether a 100yen poncho will keep me dry enough. Maybe I'll spend the extra money for an umbrella holder for my bike.
