Thousands of Haitians gathered in the 600 makeshift camps in the  metropolitan area have experienced a deterioration of their living  conditions. Deprived of tents, these  citizens cant protect themselves against the rain that continued to hit  the capital and its environs. 
Disaster victims camped at  Silvio Cator stadium get soaked at every rain shower because their rudimentary tents  can not protect them. Some people manage to  find a place in the few sheets available while the majority remains  standing in the rain. 
The lawn is transformed  into a pool which complicates the task. "The children are in the  same situation," says a mother who tries to repair his small makeshift tent. 
The majority of victims  in downtown Port-au-Prince have been up all night during the rain with their feet in water. Unable to live in such  extreme conditions many people are returning to their damaged and unsecrued houses. 
While heavy rains are  registered new aftershocks continue to rock the buildings. Usually regarded as a blessing,  the rain is now seen as an additional punishment by the victims already  faced with the aftershocks.
