Too Much Rain

I know that the U.S. has been experiencing a severe drought, but here in Korea it is almost the opposite: we have been getting too much rain (especially in the greater-Seoul area, where I live).

We have had a succession of all-night rains, with water pooling up on the ground.

And it's not going to end anytime soon, as a typhoon is expected for early next week.

I'm assuming that the farmers are not happy and that, as happened before, the increased precipitation is going to push up food prices (similar to what is happening with the drought in the U.S., though not as extreme).

The one benefit is that is has been cooler for the past week, but the humidity bites.
