Default Rain Today

We should be getting rain today! Finally a little saturation. It’s been so dry these past months. All the ponds seem down. 😊

I can't wait! I love rain. And the lawns need some water.

Weather Channel says 15%
In FL that means virtually zero

And if there is .01 inches it is correct. Enough rain to raise the humidity and do nothing.

No. That's called "trace" rain

I only believe in rain when the streets are wet.

When AccuWeather shows these low percentages of chance of precipitation they’re just hedging their bets that brief pop up shower may occur. The amounts of rain they associate with it is in hundreds of an inch. Could rain across the street but not on you. Nothing to get excited about.

I'm sure it will rain, just not near my home.

My Weather app is showing Lady Lake (where my part of The Villages is located) will probably see maybe less than half an inch tomorrow afternoon, some time between 2pm and 6pm.

OK, let's get all of the convertible car owners to put their roofs down and leave the cars outside, mine seems to attract water when I do this....
