Y recuerda: “viajar es aprender”.

季节 Season （for beginner）

こんにちは、Atsushiです。
昨日、おとといは晴れでしたが、今日は雨がずっと降っています。雨が降るとランニングができないので、困りますね。

最近、雨がよく降ります。
それで、世界の国々ではどれぐらい雨が降るのか調べてみました！

グローバルノート、というサイトで、世界の年間降水量 国別ランキング・推移を見てみました。

みなさん、世界で1番雨が降る国はどこかわかりますか？

1位はなんと、コロンビアでした！
2位はサントメ・プリンシペ、という国です、(初めて聞きました)
3位はパプアニューギニアでした。

それぞれとても赤道に近い国ですね。
そして、日本は何位でしょうか？

日本は、48位でした。
182位、1番雨が少ない国はエジプトでした。

中東の地域は雨がとても少ないようですね。
砂漠の地域が多いことからも、わかりますね。

日本は6月ごろに梅雨つゆ、という雨がたくさん降る時期があります。今この8.9月は台風があります。その影響で強い雨がよく降ります。冬は雨というより雪になることも多いです。

雨が多い国ではどうやってすごしているんですかね。
ちょっと気になりました。

もし、雨よく降るよ！という国の方がいましたら、ぜひレッスンで話をしましょう！いや、私の国は全く降らないよ！という方もぜひ！話したいです。


ということで、今回は世界の雨が降る国と日本の雨について話しました。最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！ではまた！
