Previously it’s called the monsoon.
Nowadays, it’s termed climate change + monsoon.

Occasionally there’s La Niña and El Niño thrown into the mix.

This is relatively normal weather between October and February. As noted by the observer, it's called monsoon season. Its not really been bad yet. Wait until you don't see ANY sun for 14~21 consecutive days. Then you will understand. But yeah, the Strawberries and millenials like to call it climate change. This is normal tropical weather every year. Having said that, it's not been near as bad as it was back in the 80s & early '90's.

I'm loving it! Not the rain so much, but the cooler temps. When one considers I don't use Aircon, it's a good substitute. ;-)
