Beautiful sound, the rumble of thunder,
we've had a dry winter, I'm hoping for rain.

I think I'll go out and smell the wet air,
and smile at the thought of a cool, quiet night.



The winds of March blow cold and long,
they sing to God a roaring song,
and then they bring the pouring rain,
to call the flowers back again.
 
I like that. After work I spent much of the evening on my front porch, watching a line of storms wander towards me and enjoying the slow transition from a few scattered raindrops to a steady rain to a furious downpour and back again. Accompanied by my girlfriend and a glass of Jameson 12 year it made for a very enjoyable evening.
 
That's exactly what I like so much about watching the weather and enjoying the change taking place in front of me, becoming a relaxed spectator instead of an unhappy victim!
 
I also enjoy Rain and a Spring rain is even more enjoyable with the reward of green. :)
Most of the rain fell at night, so I couldn't also enjoy the Grey :D (Gray) as well.
 
Nice Esav. :thumbup:

The monsoon rains here in the desert are some of the best rains I've witnessed. It's extrordinary when you have the chance to travel to the local mountains and witness the build up to a rain. Surrounded by nature, all the critters being chatty, then silence as the rain falls. Really helps to decompress and relax the mind. It has much more meaning than the rainy onslaught of the Great Northwest.

It has been a dry season here, I enjoyed walking the dog through the rain today. More than she did, for sure.

I love the smell of the desert during and right after a good rain. The dust gets washed off everything so it looks and smells CLEAN!!
