    They do, but I’m from America so I use whatever.

    Also we have kinda do seasons here, right now it’s “wet”, meaning in the highlands it tends to be drizzly and clouds more often, and you get 1-2 15 minute showers, and in the low lands, it’s sunny all day, and you get absolutely dumped on for 15-30 minutes in the late afternoon and sometimes in the morning.

      Same thing happens in Nigeria Ive heard. I think that many countries near the equator also have seasons that look like this too.

        Yes, equatorial areas only have wet and dry seasons, but they tend to be too hot, up here in the mountains, it’s always nice.

          In the mountains at the equator…

          I didnt actuallt think about the fact that its cooler in the mountains even at the equator so I was always curious as to why large numbers of people near the equator chose to live im such places. I thought they mainly did it cause up in the mountains the view is prettier.

          But the heat of the equator gets mellowed out a bit by the heightened level into the atmosphere… so…
