I love the sunshine, I love when it gets choking moist because of all the water in the vegetation drying out, on those wonderful days!
*equips flamejacket*
Never the less, I love those days after a week of warm weather, when it doesn't just rain, but pours.
Sound of water splattering on the grass outside, running down the window and hitting the board. <3
I hate the rain. Standing outside, slowly getting drenched.
I hate rain even more when my waterproof jacket decides it wants an early retirement and becomes an ordinary jacket.
I live in England, rain is every other flipping day here.
I hate hate hate snow. I lived in snow for 18 years. And not just some snow, we're talking 500 inches of snow from October to May. Getting up 30 minutes earlier than normal JUST to trudge outside, turn your car on to let it warm up, brush off any snow, scrape the ice off of all windows (or risk an accident/ticket,) and then take an extra 15 minutes to get anywhere 'cause the roads are icy as hell and everyone drives 25 MPH in a 65 MPH zone. I'll take large amounts of rain over snow any day.

You can't wait to get outside when you hear thunder? Sense, it makes none.
I do like the rain on a day when I get to sleep in, thogh. Very nice indeed.
I absolutely despise it when it's during the day. I love hot sunny days 30+ degrees with no cloud in the sky.
I do like rain occasionally after a hot sunny day though around midnight. , the scent indeed has something soothing.

Same shit in the Netherlands.. :<
It makes all the sense! The sound of the sky cracking apart, more majestic and powerful sounding than anything else. Cool breezes of air after a hot summer day predicting heavy rainfall. When it hits, it's chaotic. And then something happens. You realise it isn't chaos, it's the natural order of things. The anxiety transforms into a feeling of calm. You walk in the rain and the thundering sky that made you humble earlier, now empowers you. It's the best feeling in the world and there's no way I'm going to miss that by sitting inside.
I live in Washington state, so, NOOOOOO rain appreciation out of me! >:[
This is now a rain hatred thread.
Or it isn't. >:|

oh man, I was 100% certain this would turn into a hate thread (maybe because I'm the only one I know that loves it). OH MAN am I happy to be wrong...
I LOVE rain! I love the sound, the smell, the SIGHT of it... it's just awesome!
nothing beats falling asleep or waking up in the middle of the night to the sound of rain
nothing
Well as a Nashvillian it really depends on the rain. Rainfall in a couple of days that equals yearly amounts and floods the crap out of my city? No thanks. Summer showers? heck yes. If nothing else it cools our temperatures down a little after it happens. I'm excited for a warm rainy day this year with no lightning so I can take my daughter out to play in it. She was too young last year.
You can ALL have our crappy dutch rain :'(
I've always preferred grey skies and rain over sunny days. I don't know what it was, but if it would be nice and cloudy outside, and the sun would start coming out, I would get pissed off.
It's raining right now, I am out on the covered porch drinking hot coco enjoying it
