Rain is so relaxing

I love to sit on the porch with my coffee, and listen to the rain. It started before daylight and is supposed to stick around for 2 days thanks to hurricane Sally. I think I’ll be ready for some sun by the time it’s gone.

I love taking a walk in the woods when it’s raining. Listening to the sound of it falling through the trees

@Krysclear Wow - where the hurricane hit. Hope you made it without too much damage.

Krysclear · 31-35, F

We were lucky enough to escape with minor damage @Jill1990

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@Krysclear that’s good - lots of flooding from that storm, even here. We lost power for three hours, but that’s it.

Got to go - chat later :)

Have you ever sat or walked put in a warm, gentle rain naked? One morning last year I was up very early, before the sun rose. It was 90 degrees out and there was a gentle rain. I ran my usual distance and was soaking from the brain and sweat. I thought it would be wonderful to be shirtless so I took off my shirt. Then, since it was still dark out, I decided to go all out and took off my shorts and sat in my backyard with only my sneakers on. I can't begin to describe the fantastic feeling. I was able to take a few selfies before I became worried that I might be caught. I highly recommend it, if you haven't experienced it yet.

I love to sit on the porch during storms or long rain showers. You are right, rain, sitting comfortably and not a care

What a lovely image. Sitting outside under cover, listening to the rain... I have been doing that a bit lately :-)

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@SW-User we have a big lounge chair on the porch - I have been known to sleep out there sometime - at least nap.

Agreed. But I'm living through a spring rain/snowstorm. So it's mixed emotions. It is beautiful

Like hearing the sound of rain when coming on to my roof.

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@Wizardry Yes - especially sitting on a covered porch.

Getting a bit too much these days

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@DavyPNW at times it’s almost biblical :)

DavyPNW · 56-60, M

@Jill1990 I thought I saw the animals pairing up

Bklynbadboy12 · 31-35, M

I like it too and how do you take your coffee

WorldTraveler19 · 31-35, M

Very much so!

Softandsweet2 · 31-35, F

I love the rain as well. Hope you enjoy the storm.

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@Softandsweet2 Thanks

Zeusdelight · 61-69, M

It can be the ultimate, especially if it has been dry, just to have it sprinkle down and pitter-patter on the roof, saying, "I'm here, start playing or even singing." It seems to announce fresh time is here:)

@Jill1990 I would love your porches too:) You would make any room the best room in the house:) But they are great to experience the weather and the neighbourhood while still in the house!

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@Zeusdelight I line waking up with the birds and a cup of coffee :)

I’m going to bed - it’s after midnight here. Nite

Zeusdelight · 61-69, M

@Jill1990 Have a wonderful sleep:)

Rain on a corrugated iron roof is the perfect thing to fall asleep to...

@Jill1990 but only when snuggled under a thick doona!

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@ozgirl512 haha - yeah - tight around my neck

ozgirl512 · 26-30, F

@Jill1990 yuss... Chill face and warm body 🤗

lori04f · 18-21, F

I love listening to the rain when I go to sleep!

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@lori04f Better than any pill

I love the fresh smell , the cleansing of the air, the sound as it pelts the windowpane. It's relaxing. The remnants of Sally is causing rain here. Yesterday it destroyed both my sisters homes in Pensacola

The amount of water is overwhelming, one sister had a huge tree go through the roof onto her bed@Jill1990

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@Itsmrsockmonkey hope they both are ok. It’s scary.

Itsmrsockmonkey · M

They were uninjured so that's good. I got rain from it yesterday in S.C.@Jill1990

Have you ever been alone, in an isolated area during a summer light rain? The feeling on your skin is amazing.

@Jill1990 one morning this summer, I got up before sunrise for a golf tee time. It was raining that warm drizzle, I called and cancelled the ground. i went out to get the paper and my tee shirt got wet, so I took it off. The light warm rain caressed my head and chest. It was dark and no one could see me, so I stripped off all my clothing and just stood out in the brain. It was amazing. Luckily, I wasnt caught.

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@samueltyler2 haha - oh my. I would have had an umbrella I’m certain. My hair turns into a real mess when it’s wet. I doubt if you have that problem.

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

@Jill1990 no, but when you came in, you could fix that.

Dolimyte · 41-45, M

That is a great sound. I'm ready for a sunny warm day though. It's been chilly here.

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@Dolimyte it feels like fall here. It’s been in the 50s and is predicted to be in the 40s after the storm passes. At least the rain has warmed it up a little.

Dolimyte · 41-45, M

@Jill1990 wow, chilly there too.

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@Dolimyte Those are the low temps. Highs have been in the 70s and supposed to be 60s after the storm, but it’s often 95 this time of year. Burrrr

PhilDeep · 51-55, M

Good that you feel safe from flooding. Apparently this storm's considered one of the bad ones - or is that just media drama, I wonder?

Jill1990 · 31-35, F

@PhilDeep it’s really slow moving. The last one was in and out in 6 hours - this one is supposed to be much longer. They are expecting flooding here but I’m on a hill so at least I’ll survive. Not much more that you can do.
