Research grows one raindrop at a time

Rain changes a neighbourhood in minutes. A drain that cannot cope, a corner that always floods, a footpath that turns to mud — these small, local effects are exactly what national weather data misses.

For this research you will document what rainfall actually does where you live. Photograph the effects you can see after rain, record where and when each photo was taken, and describe what is happening. Together these submissions build a picture of how rain affects real streets across the country.
