Rain, Rain go away!!!

I love thunderstorms but all day rain is for the birds.  This morning I woke up to hearing the rain just coming down.  Ughhh....it's SUMMER!!!  We only get so many days of warm weather over the summer in Virginia so a rainy day just puts a damper on things.  I know rain is good for the environment and lord knows we aren't lacking for it this year since our grass is super dooper green.

Reasons why I don't like rain:
Causes bad traffic (usually not on Saturday and Sundays)
Roads flood at times (depending on the serverity and longivity of the rain)
The grass is saturated (makes it hard to play outside)
Can't go to the pool in rain
People can't drive in rain
Tomato and cucumber plants aren't doing so well.  (I read somewhere that they don't like constant rain, they like hot/sunny weather)
For me, I can't grill outside in the rain

Reasons I like rain:
Thunderstorms (as long as they are not destructive or violent - they are neat to watch and usually come and go very quickly.
Warm rain is better than cold rain (hands down!)

So I turned on TV to watch the weather and the weatherman said all the rain should be outta here by noon. Apparently the warm sunny weather is suppose to roll in and actually be a nice day so I'm ready for this day to turnaround!

But for some reason, I'm not sure I 100% believe it.
