Last thing I do before bed is check the weather. So tonight I went to weather.com, clicked the 10 day forecast for my area, then blinked.



Showers with a 100% chance of Vietnamese?

I feel bad not knowing what language that is! Based on Googling, it doesn't look to be Chinese, Japanese, or Korean. It doesn't look Vietnamese to my eye, but I'm far from an expert on languages. The whole page was an odd mix of languages:

It should be snow...we have had a really weird winter this year! Yesterday it was snowing hard, then turned to rain as it got dark. That is the opposite of what usually happens.

Using the same Chinese characters makes it handy to travel in other Asian countries that do the same. Even if I can't pronounce it in the local language, I can usually find the harmless chicken dish in the menu and point to it. XD

Hopefully next winter will be more normal. This week is going to be about our grand total of rain for the last year. It's going to be a dry summer, I'm afraid!

And that's an important skill, when traveling in other countries. :D
