some info from people back home - heavy rain eh?

grounded near the Panjim-Betim ferry wharf in inclement
weather conditions late yesterday evening. GT

this, Goa's seasonal total rainfall touched 84 inches.GT
* In Margao, around 110 migrants inhabiting the low-lying
areas near the Khareband bridge were evacuated to the Nehru

flowing in full spate, inundating low-lying areas.
* Around 700-odd mechanised trawlers, netting fish in deep
sea, had to return half-way due to heavy rains and strong
wind.

Are the roads still dug up because of the underground cables?
In the years gone by, the heaviest rains occurred on the Feast of St.
Lawrence - 10th August... Is the feast still celebrated in Sinquerim?
Take care
