Love the Scent of Rain

Am so happy it is always raining daily in the afternoon. It made the temperatures cooler; a nice relief from the humidity and heat during the past weeks. This afternoon it rained again, and while am trying to get some afternoon nap, I smelled the scent of rain; it is so good and relaxing. There's also a nice scent coming from the leaves of grasses and trees as it gets soaked from the big raindrops. I always love the rain. Do you like it too?

@cacay1 I am not amused at all, we are going to have serious problems if it does not stop. There is nothing amusing.

It is the start of rainy season here in mid-June, the weather bureau said; but in our place it is likely to come earlier.

It is really comforting, the reason why some hotels have the sound of waterfalls in their frontage; really calming.

I love rainy days, it is hard to explain. But it gives me reason to stay at home all day.

It is true, it is so nice to curl up in bed and listen to the raindrops on the roof and on the plants.

You can save it in a container then use it for the dry months for the plants.

I wish it would rain in CDO so you can be relieve of that hot temperatures there. PAG-ASA said the rainy season will start by mid-June so it will also rain in your place.
