Harry and Meghan take the rain to the city of Outback, affected by the drought
The Duke and the Duchess of Sussex were jokingly grateful for bringing to England notoriously unforgiving weather to a town in Outback, affected by the drought, on Wednesday in a visit soaked by rain to Dubbo during his tour of the Australian royalty.

The heavy rain began to fall when the royal couple later arrived at the Dubbo park for a community picnic, but hundreds cheered the supporters and were enthusiastic.

Although the rain in recent weeks has been welcome, much more is needed to repair the economic and environmental ravages of the extended dry period.
Meghan held an umbrella over Harry while giving a speech, acknowledging the difficulties that the drought brought to the rural community and urging the victims of the drought not to suffer in silence.

The prince ended by thanking Dubbo for his invitation and for sharing the stories, adding: "And the rain was a gift."
Harry and his Meghan are on a 16-day tour of Australia, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand.
