It's raining here today.
Now, to the average reader this pronouncement would be met with a shrug and a click-through to YouTube. But given it's summer. In Australia. This is met by your average denizen with whoops and shouts.
I kid you not, people had their faces pressed against the glass to look at this phenomenon we in the US take for granted.
Why? Because here in South Australia the last rainfall is normally in November and then doesn't rain again until the end of April.
And surprise, suprise! The rain wasn't predicted by the BOM.
But I will say, even your Farmer was a bit surprised by the rain. Not that I did a rain dance or anything like one of my co-workers.
But then again, I'm not Australian.
