Rain, Rain, Hurray, Hurray

After 4 solid months of bitching about snow, I'm happy to report that it is raining today.

The Weather Office web site, however, seems to be hedging its bets. It has a funny warning that maybe things could still maybe change back to snow. It feels like a "Don't Blame Us" kinda warning.

I suspect that is to protect themselves because if the rain should turn to snow, angry Montrealers will storm the Environment Canada offices bearing torches and pitchforks, for sure. I'll be there.

Next problem: How many days of mild weather before my basement is full of water? There's a lot of melting to be done.

"it isn't really raining rain,
it's raining violets!
and when you see clouds upon a hill
they could soon be clouds of daffodils!
so keep on looking for a bluebird
and listening for its song
whenever april showers come along"

Send some of the rain down here - our grass is brown, the garden slowly dying.
