If I have to go out and it unexpectedly rains, it's a nuisance but mainly because I'm not "ready" for it.
Other times - especially during a hot summer - I love it and will sometimes go out for a walk in it. Plus, it makes a nice noise - like waves breaking on a seashore, it's quite calming.

It's cool, clean, refreshing, and relaxing. What's not to love about rain? Except in the cool months it's the sun I don't particularly care for. It's hot and uncomfortable and makes me sweat, even when I'm just trying to read. I have a sensory issue with sweat, and I hate it. So, rain, rain, come and stay, today, tomorrow and every day!

Our rain is kind of disgusting. We have dirty rain (but clean tap water) here. I'm probably going to get laughed at, but I prefer heat waves over rain. In elementary school, my friend said that she wasn't built for the rain. I guess I wasn't either.

It's okay for short periods of time.

I don't hate rain, or love it. I'm just fine with it.

Hell yes I love it! We're in a drought right now and soon my area will look like a desert! Okay not really, but it came mighty close to it with our last drought a couple years ago.

Drought or no, I like rain for the most part. For some reason though I only like the look of it in my neighborhood and the surrounding area... kinda weird.

Rain is appealing because it's an excuse to stay inside my home where I'm safe AND it's doubly effective because it encourages other people to stay inside their homes, too. Sooo quiet. True, the rain can be annoying when I must go out in it, but then it's even nicer to come inside where it's warm and dry.

I also enjoy the way our magnificent thunderstorms remind people who's boss.

I like the rain when it hasn`t rained in a while. I love the way it sounds, it`s so relaxing! But I HATE going out in it!

I love rain. Rain is life. You can see the birds and plants happy after it rains. I love watching rain fall, smelling it and listening to it. It makes me a little blue, though. When I was little I LOVED playing in the rain. Now that I am an adult I do not like getting wet with the rain, but I think it is because we are always busy and do not take pleasure on those little things anymore.

I LOVE the energy of a strong thunderstorm...I love hearing the rain, watching the rain....and recoil like a cat when I am in it because of sensory issues. Kinda of a look but dont touch thing.

How is the rain dirty?? just curious? Is it like duststorm rain, polution rain, or what makes it dirty?

Love the rain we've been in a long drought for so long and we've been on water restrictions but the last few months we've been getting rain again. :D
