Rain of the Ghosts is the first in Greg Weisman's series about an adventurous young girl, Rain Cacique, who discovers she has a mystery to solve, a mission to complete and, oh, yes, the ability to see ghosts. Welcome to the Prospero Keys (or as the locals call them: the Ghost Keys), a beautiful chain of tropical islands on the edge of the Bermuda Triangle. Rain Cacique is water-skiing with her two best friends Charlie and Miranda when Rain sees her father waiting for her at the dock. Sebastian Bohique, her maternal grandfather, has passed away. He was the only person who ever made Rain feel special. The only one who believed she could do something important with her life. The only thing she has left to remember him by is the armband he used to wear: two gold snakes intertwined, clasping each other's tails in their mouths. Only the armband . . . and the gift it brings: Rain can see dead people. Starting with the Dark Man: a ghost determined to reveal the Ghost Keys' hidden world of mystery and mysticism, intrigue and adventure.

For as the rain drums out its story on the sloped roofs of the village, Junehee's own family story unfolds. And Junehee soon realizes that her mother's sadness is tied to a long-standing tradition that neglects women's dreams--a tradition that Junehee hopes to break free of. . . .

The difference between humidity & clouds; is the hydrogen bond between the water molecules. The hydrogen bond requires the surrounding space to be negatively ionized. Electricity is filling the skies with positively charged electrons, ridding the sky of negative ionization. Electricity is the cause of the drought. In the 1930's, lightning in Northern America tripled & has not increased nor decreased since. Why did it increase? Why did it plateau? What happened in the 1930's? Hint: Tesla...

How does it influence the weather? All this and more is covered in The Science Of Rain.
The hugely admired author of "The Last Fine Time" preserves and makes new the sights, smells, sounds, and poetry of country living.
