Rains fail to lash city

I'm disappointed. Obviously the Peninsula has gotten a new headline writer since last year: not a single RAINS LASH CITY has appeared this week. Instead we get headlines like City experiences a complete wet day. I feel this lacks the panache of RAINS LASH CITY, although the description of potholes as "axle-breakers ... the size of moon craters" has some flair.
It's still an interesting read for those wondering what happens when it rains in a city entirely lacking storm drains.
