Who'll Stop the Rain?

There are other things happening in Taiwan besides this idiotic thing with Phils... there's the depressingly unremitting rain.

We're in our seventh or eighth week of it, and this week has just been awful. Apple Daily reports roads out all over central and southern Taiwan:

據《中央社》報導，公路總局說，到中午12時，因坍方中斷的道路，包括：台中市台8線德基、碧綠溪，高雄市的台20線勤和、復興、桃源，南投縣的台21線新中橫路段國姓、望高、塔塔加及高雄市台21線那瑪夏至五里埔等9路段。公路總局另預警性封閉嘉義縣169線阿里山達邦村及高雄市台21線民權大橋等2路段。

Road collapses reported in mountain areas of Hwy 8, Hwy 20, Hwy 21, and Rte 169 over Alishan, among others.
