Ya know...I have the Forecastfox extension for Firefox - it shows the weather. I have mine set to show the weather icon for extended forecasts.

Right now I have a loonnnnnnnng row of clouds. Nothing but. No other icon in use.

On the bright side, we get some variation. Rain, Periods of rain, Breezy with rain, Windy with rain, Rain, heavy at times

Rain with periods of showers... Showers with periods of rain. Drizzle becoming showers with rain in some areas... ;~)

I'm reminded of a blurb from "So Long and Thanks For All The Fish"

Rob McKenna was a miserable bastard and he knew it because he’d had a lot of people point it out to him over the years and he saw no reason to disagree with them except the obvious one which was that he liked disagreeing with people, particularly people he disliked, which included, at the last count, everybody...

It wasn’t that he was naturally predisposed to be so surly, at least he hoped not. It was just the rain that got him down, always the rain...

Rob McKenna had two hundred and thirty-one differently types of rain entered in his little book, and he didn’t like any of them...

And as he drove on, the rain clouds dragged down the sky after him for, though he didn’t have know it, Rob Mckenna was a Rain God. All he knew what that his working days were miserable and he had a succession of lousy holidays. All the clouds knew was that they loved him and wanted to be be near him, to cherish him, and to water him.
