    Around here, even in the midst of 30+ degree summers, rain is the thing we look forward to to bring the temperature back down.

    Riding a motorcycle is the rain feels a lot like letting someone throw gravel at your face. It's not fun at all.

    What were you going to do outside, Pike?

    Ew. I used to try jetskiing in the rain when I was younger. That junk hurts like a mofo.

    Make the right choice, my friend.
    Yes but then I can't engage in my country's favourite pastime of moaning about the weather.
    I thought it was moaning about everything not just the weather?

    I love rain. I jump in puddles and splash and even when I drive, I do a very unsafe thing. When I go through a big puddle I take my hands of the wheel and clap in excitement. I can't help it, it's so much fun and puddles and splashes and weeeeee!

    Do it on the internet. That's why Al Gore invented it!

    I love going out in a light drizzle. Heavy rains are nice to watch inside. Most of my state is kinda tired of the rain though.

    Depends on the rain! If the mood calls and it's not too cold or windy, being out in the rain can be great. Staying inside when it rains is great for all types of rain, and gets proportionally better with the amount of downpour.

    I was thinking of going outside, but the government is shutting down.

    I love walking in the rain though.

    I like to be in the rain if I am either adequately prepared (with a warm raincoat and appropriate footwear) or if it doesn't matter how presentable I am afterwards. It's nice to walk and get soaked in a cool summer rain, as long as you can wear dry clothes afterwards and not have to see people. Otherwise it's nice to sit on the front porch and watch a driving rain.

    Rain makes the best sleeps, though. I love when we're in for a night full of rain. I open my windows just enough to get a breeze and the sounds, not enough to soak the carpet, then I snuggle in and get the best sleeps.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Rain doesn't bother me usually. I enjoy a light sprinkle and not a heavy shower, but prefer it to also be nice and sunny when it rains, for that I loath gloomy skies. Windy weather is my most hated though. I hate fierce winds with a fiery passion.

    I like being out in the rain......especially since not a lot of people are walking about too.

    Even better when people are standing nearby!

    I bet you ran around the slippery tile surrounding swimming pools as a kid, too. Would explain a lot.

    Running barefoot is the best in any weather. Except maybe a heatwave if you plan to run on asphalt.

    I was too poor as a kid to run around pools with tiles unlike you, Richie Rich.
