We begin our week here at Provo Primary with one of those not so common rainy Mondays. What a joy it is to hear the frogs merrily croaking in the water tank and to see the children arriving in wellies and raincoats, huddled under umbrellas. We don’t often get to hear such sounds or to don such apparel so there is almost a sense of excitement as children arrive for their day at school.
The climate in Turks and Caicos is described best as desert tropical. This means that the weather is arid, warm, and lacking significant annual rainfall. Although when it rains, our heart turn to the tourists and a hope for our sunny skies to return, residents also feel a sense of joy that their water tanks will be filling up and that the parched plants will be enjoying a well needed drink.
The islands average 350 sunny days per year. With a few unsettled days forecast for the week ahead, please enjoy this amazing video from cayahicomedia.com as a reminder of what will soon return and how fortunate we are to live in such a beautiful land with predominately gorgeous climes.
