One of the cities of Turkey, Balikesir, municipality of the city announced that there will be hailing and raining much that day. The citizens taken cautions by covering their cars with every kind of objects they could find including cartons, rugs and even carpets ! I adore very scientific solutions of my people !
There is an old but funny tradition in Manisa Sarigol in Turkey which was kept for centuries called “Kepce Gelin”.
Children visit homes by saying songs and making sounds with the aluminum boxes and other strange stuff. The houseowners make them wet by water hoses. It is accepted as a type of Rain Prayer and blessings for the people living there to get more rain for their vegetable, fruits,wheat and corn fields. Anyway, children like it )
I don’t know how many hours they have spent making all the people’s arrangements and movements. Digitization part surely the easiest should be. Anyway it is really creative.
