I love the rains today. All day long in SE Florida

The rains falling down today on the just and and the unjust. It is greening up all lawns here. You might be an atheist but it doesn't matter.... You are still getting God's righteous rain coming down on your trees and plants.

Really you get that little rain in East Florida? Southwest Florida is monsoon rains daily then three feet of storm surge from the tropical storm. Half the year (winter) is dry season, the summer is rainy season with rain almost every day.

96" so far. Dang, send some our way in CA, we barely hit 6" if that. worst dry season ever. Arizona got more rain than we did.

You may be drinking the holy blood of christ, it doesn’t matter, lawns still suck.

The rain falls on the flowers and the weeds. That is one of my wife's favorite sayings. She may be insinuating that I am a weed.

I'm an hour north of Sacramento. We hit 115 this weekend and have had less than 9 inches of rain this year. :(

In the 70's and raining here.  I guess even with the risk of hurricanes it's worth living here.  Rain=life.  No water=death.  (But the mountains of sargassum seaweed choking the beach the entire summer now is another story.  That seems likes some sort of Atlantic Ocean ecological crisis!)
