Ive heard of people saying that they saw where the rain started and stopped but it never happened to me until today. Picture this, sunny day, windy, windows all open and hubby is out with our dog. HE comes back in and says its raining Im standing at the sink staring out the window at the pool and I dont see any droplets in there, so I tell him "yeah sure". He says, "no Im serious, its raining at the front of the house but not at the back" !!!! So I ran to the front of the house, peeked through the window and low and behold.....its raining!!!!! Have you ever seen something like this happen? Its really weird !!

Yeah! ^^ It's really weird. I haven't seen something like that before. But, there was one time when it was raining while I was walking towards our house, but after 3 blocks, it wasn't raining anymore. I know it's not as weird as that, but that's the closest 'rain-incident' thing that happened to me.

I know what you mean, you cant see a "line" where it rains on one side and not on the other. I get this when Im driving.

I have seen this happen, but that does not make it any less weird.I guess the cloud was just sitting up there on one side of your property and dumped all of its accumulated moisture in the one part of your yard.

Strange thing is, it was sunny and the sky was blue, no cloud in sight. Yes it was rain, not birds flying by haha. It was raining across the street all over the neighbors houses.

Here in Colorado it is a common occurrence, you can drive one hour from here and go through rain, sunshine and 70 degrees and then a snow storm.

Well Colorado sure sounds like where I live. We have all kinds of weather going on here too. Last week, there were 2 small tornadoes. One at about 30 mins from me, the other at about 5 mins. THAT was scary!!!

Yes, I saw that before. When I was in senior high school, everyday I went to school by bicycle. There's a bridge along my way to school. One day, it's raining so I put on my raincoat. But when I passed the bridge, it didn't rain and the sun was very shining. It's very weird and I'll never forget it.

That's funny. I've never seen it raining in one spot but not another, but I have seen rain coming at me from fairly far away. There was this one time where I was watching a lake and it started raining over the lake. I saw the drops start pouring down on the water, and the wind pick up over the lake a full minute before it hit where I was.
