The storms there brought down TONS of rain, and the humidity...blech. You're right, rain here isn't uncomfortable. Which is why I enjoy it. :) Even the relatively little we get, when it is a lot more than 'normal', however, can cause a lot of damage, because our arid region isn't made for it, and all of the changes we've made through agriculture and housing have made it even less able to deal with a lot of rain. Sigh. I don't care. I'll enjoy it anyway, and like Scarlett says, "I'll worry about the rest tomorrow...for tomorrow is another day!" (A crappy attitude if I could actually prevent anything bad from coming from all of this rain, but since I can't, and perhaps nothing bad WILL come from it all, I just accept it and enjoy!) (And today is beautiful and mostly sunny, with just occasional spurts of rain and clouds. Very nice.<BR/><BR/>Achromic, I too enjoy the thunder, but watching my dog cower and shake in terror, not so much, so I'm thankful that we're not having thunder storms. :)Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19251412.post-1144696766790563312006-04-10T12:19:00.000-07:002006-04-10T12:19:00.000-07:00I just wish that if it was gonna rain that we woul...I just wish that if it was gonna rain that we would have thunderstorms.... I mean a few real good lighting and thunder rattle the window ones would be a change.... and I do so miss that from the midwest. I have low blood pressure (like SUPER LOW) and so I am cold all the time even when it is really hot.... so I like the hot.... the REAL hot. My spouse however is much more like you and enjoys it a bit cooler and really complains LOUDLY if it is over 75. :)achromichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00252522602141749219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19251412.post-1144669575566760072006-04-10T04:46:00.000-07:002006-04-10T04:46:00.000-07:00turn on 'the carpenters' everybody!

I am also thankful for the rain since I grew up and maintain a water conservation practice, AND it means I don't have to water the plants. :-)<BR/><BR/>I say, let it rain at night but I still need my sunshine during the day. Plus CA drivers forget how to drive when it rains.<BR/><BR/>Missed you!Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13329087078358950801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19251412.post-1144644215875937832006-04-09T21:43:00.000-07:002006-04-09T21:43:00.000-07:00Gina- I live in the wrong damn part of "the countr...Gina- I live in the wrong damn part of "the country"!
