I recorded the rain on my phone earlier.
I might do something with it, but here’s the raw file. I love the sound of rain, I find it really relaxing.

The recording was in my garden, the rain starts softly on the canvas roof of our gazebo, then gets heavier.
You can hear birds, some cars, planes and possibly trains too in the background as we’re near an airport and a train station.

Hong Kong recorded its heaviest rainfall in at least 140 years, causing widespread flooding and landslides. The extreme weather was linked to the remnant of Typhoon Haikui, which had earlier hit Taiwan and China1. The unprecedented rainstorm could be a sign of climate change, affecting the lives and livelihoods of millions of people in the region.

Here's one from a few years ago I forgot about. Poor me. How could I forget about such a cute little sluggie? I saw him slugging along on some brick after a rainstorm, so I dub this piece simply "Sluggie Crawling on Brick".

We got a wonderful, much needed rainstorm today. If you enjoy the sound of rain on a tin roof, turn it up and enjoy.

I've got that feeling like you're driving your car through a car wash. The only difference is it's my house.

Interesting flooding article: slate.com/business/2023/01/100

“American infrastructure is designed around a simple idea: We can predict how often the worst storms will come. Take the benchmark that undergirds the $1.2 trillion National Flood Insurance Program: the 100-year flood. That’s a that’s supposed to occur once a century, on average. A once-in-a-lifetime event. Similar estimates govern basic Sewers might be designed for a two-year rainstorm (likely to occur once every two years) or culverts for a 25-year (once every quarter-century).”

Hey, you know what helps mitigate the effects of heavy rainfall, right? And you know who creates wetlands, right?

Nova Scotia's first snowstorm is just about washed away.
I've gained a few *ponds* in the front and back yard. The ground is too frozen to absorb it, and it's going to be eroding the lawns washing off.
I might take a break from my research and go watch the river swell...

and 😅 promises $20 million to clear your storm drains by 2025

of vary bare trees during this week's rainstorms.
It's a very wide angle shot with the camera placed against a window & you can see the reflection in the glass on the far right side of the photo.

2nd pic is edited for high contrast & coolness 😎
