Do You Remember Summer Time Rain?

Another question for your life story:

Do you remember summer time rain?

When it is hot I enjoy rain storms.  Summer rain is usually very pleasant.  Just a few days ago when I was walking my dog, it started to rain.  I didn't realize it was raining to begin with.  You really couldn't feel the drops, but I could hear them falling on roofs and other objects.  It was hot so the first drops evaporated away as soon as they touched the ground.  Then the drops started to stay a little longer, but the older drops faded away as new drops hit the ground.  Looking at the sidewalk I thought, "It looks like polka dot rain."  

Sometimes summer rain storms are thunder storms.  They may knock the power out, and they can be damaging computers and other sensitve equipment.  Sometimes the rain may come so fast and hard it creates a flash flood.  Sometimes the storm creates hail.  Summer rain can be interesting.

What do you remember about summer rain storms?  Write down any memories you have?  They are part of your story.
