The rain woke me up

I woke up to the sound of rain pounding on the roof. I have never heard it rain so hard. It sure is coming down. We need it though. It has been along time since we had any amount of rain. Sadly though this will be an end to most of the pretty colored leaves. There will be a lot of bare trees by the time the rain is done. It is pretty muggy now but the temperature is suppose to take a dive tonight and the weather is going to be much colder then it has been. I think I am just going to stay inside where it is dry until all this rain passes. Hope you are all enjoying your day so far.

So sad to see the leaves go, isn't it? Enjoy the nice warm house.

I miss playing in the rain. That was what I was always doing when I was still a kid. Everytime it rains, I would ask my parents to allow me run in the rain. I loved it very much.

@Happy2BeMe ButI have a weakness. I easily get cold. So I will just play I guess for 10 minutes then I needed to go back to our house because i was already shivering.

I just knew those big storms would do something. You can always count on something changing when you hear about large weather patterns. But then again maybe its just time. They don't last long do they.

We don't get rain that often but usually when we do it comes down hard like that. The good thing is it doesn't usually last very long maybe 5 mins if we're lucky. I don't think I could stand listening to that for longer, I live in a mobile home and boy is it annoyin when it's windy or we get that hard rain.

It was raining earlier this morning when I was driving to and from the gym. Not sure if it will continue through the day but it is gray and windy out. Not looking very nice.

Hi L_B. Rain usually puts me to sleep, but it must have been quite a noisemaker of a rain.

@Happy2BeMe I like rain when it is light while the sun is up and there is no thunder/lightning when going for a short walk. You get a nice sprinkling.

A few times the rain has woken me because it's been so loud, it's almost a little scary. If it goes on all night it can get quite annoying being woken by it!
