What's left of my lawn would like to have a word with you.
In Johannesburg, precipitation amounts to
705 millimeters (27.8 inches) per year: so, it is at an intermediate level. It ranges from 5 mm (0.2 in) in the driest months (July, August) to 125 mm (4.9 in) in the wettest one (January).
In Portsmouth, precipitation amounts to
700 millimeters (27.6 inches) per year: so, it is at an intermediate level. It ranges from 40 mm (1.6 in) in the driest months (April, June) to 85 mm (3.3 in) in the wettest ones (October, November, December)
Rainfall amounts to
615 millimeters (24 inches) per year, and it is not as abundant as in many other European cities: the perception of
London as a rainy city is mostly due to the frequency of the rains, which can occur quite often also in summer.
