Few Fish in the Market

I go to two fish markets every morning. There weren't many fish at the markets in this week. We call this phenomenon "Natsu-gare" in Japanese. Natsu means summer and gare means withered.
Usually, this phenomenon lasts until September. During the Natsu-gare season, fish prices are much hier than usual. 
Once a typhoon come to around Japan, Natsu-gare will end.
