An Introduction to Buffaloes

[River Buffaloes]

That is a lot of rain. You are surrounded by water? What about the crop lands, I guess they are under water.

Yes, the rice was not transplanted yet, but the sidlings were almost ready. They are gone

I know some areas here in the USA that would love to take SOME of that rain off your hands! Feast or famine with rain it seems.

Bring in your ropes and planes

The problem is that the if we release the Buffaloes, it will be difficult to herd them back. There's a Hindi saying "the Buffalo is gone in Water" it means the task has become complicated

That makes perfect sense to me.

I have heard a new one, "love me like flood, I will submerge in you like Bihar."

If that doesn’t melt a lady’s heart, nothing will!

The problem with monsoon is that we get a lot of rain in relatively short amount time. Like we received around 1200 mm (around 50") of rain in 2020 of which 1000mm (around 40") of rain was received in just 3 months.

We have never gotten that much in that short of a time, but we have had some monumental rains. The first year we lived here, yearly total was somewhere around 60”, normal rain is 45” for the year. That year, culverts washed out, it flooded low areas, but we are high and dry. Then here comes summer! Hit!

Monsoon is causing havoc in the Western States.

In Bihar enjoying and celebrating the opening of weather, even though it's still raining almost every day. The rains are not as heavy.

River Buffalos! I’ve been worried about you and your family. Even our small town news reported on the flooding in western India. I wondered how you fared and how your family were found. I’m so happy to know that the rains are more normal in your area. I’m greatly saddened by the loss of life and the hardships on the survivors. I know you must be busy during this time of year, thanks for posting so we know you are ok.
