We lived in Hawaii when I was growing up. It was in a dry area of Oahu. We always went outside when it rained. It was as warm as bathwater, & it was wonderful.
The rain can be awesome when you live in a hot, sweat-inducing climate and air conditioning is not available.
My wife and I went on a sailing trip in the Abacos back around 2004 or so with three other couples on a 42 foot catamaran. It was an unbelievably fun trip.
But there was one day, when it was so oppressively hot, it began to rain, and grew in intensity until we were being deluged.
I have a picture of myself, laying flat on my back on the trampoline, just soaking in that rain.
Bliss. Pure bliss.
