Rainy season is in full swing here in Ghana, giving MoM and airfield activities additional challenges! 4 of the past 6 days have seen rainfall, with several of the storms sending more than a few inches of rain and high winds our way. Although rainfall is essential for farming and other agricultural activities in Ghanaian communities, these types of storms can result in further challenges for them as well due to homes collapsing, flooding of the roads, and falling trees/branches. As Hallie and I are planning to spend some time in some of the rural communities for a few days this next week, weather like this certainly adds to the logistics!
