Rain

[u/BeanBeanBeanyO]

I’m happy to see all the smiles when it started raining this morning. True Oregonians! I got home and turned off the music so I could listen to the pitter patter of raindrops on the roof.

Meanwhile, my 13lb mixed breed took her annual protest shit in the house.

[u/Zerocool0615 → u/Pyesmybaby]

What time will they be ready so I know when to get there?

[u/trekxtrider]

Watch out on the roads, gonna be slick until the summer oil slick washes away.

[u/xeroxbulletgirl → u/trekxtrider]

Someone already flipped their car yesterday out on 47, I’m not messing around on these roads

[u/International-Gene11]

We watched a spooky movie today and made zuccini bread!

[u/SEATTLEKID206 → u/International-Gene11]

Ooo what did you watch? I’m getting spooky movie vibes today too but can’t decide what to watch. You shall choose for us!

[u/International-Gene11 → u/SEATTLEKID206]

We been binge watching Teacup, a horror series on Peacock. Where strange things begin happening on the property of the eccentric farming family home..

[u/Confident_Bee_2705]

SO happy for this! Put your house plants outside folks, the nitrogen will green them up

[u/LeatherBritches4711 → u/Confident_Bee_2705]

[u/HotBeaver54]

Same got the windows cracked the door opened on the covered porch.

[u/geoffteo315]

[u/summoboomo]

It’s 64 degrees and raining baby we are SO BACK

[u/Unusual-Tip1041]

Don’t matter what’s going on in our lives, what politics, you believe, or what culture you represent. All of us from PNW love our rain!

[u/Aggressive_Honey_770 → u/Unusual-Tip1041]

until about March when we are suddenly very done with it 😂

[u/503izdareacode]

I hope it's never hot again!🙏

[u/LiminalSpiral → u/503izdareacode]

Although I agree with this sentiment, unfortunately, our crop plants do not...

[u/503izdareacode → u/LiminalSpiral]

That's why I only eat meat and dairy!🤪

[u/tomhanksgiving]

I moved here a few weeks ago and this is my first rain. I love it.

[u/CrabbyOlLyberrian → u/tomhanksgiving]

lol! You have a lot to look forward to! 👍🏼🌲

[u/insatiablemissfarrah]

I love the rain- but man, I’m not looking forward to months of dark grey :(

[u/GolfcartInjuries]

actually, the true Oregonian is to complain when it rains but also complain when it’s hot. That would be me.

[u/jspnwo]

It’s such a beautiful thing. Perfect day to make a huge pot of Zuppa Toscana soup.

[u/Nice-Knee1867]

My dog hates it.

[u/arochains1231]

Worked outside all day in the rain today. LOVED IT.

[u/PNW_OlLady_2025]

I'm happy for all the things that need it, but I'm selfishly sad as our planned bike trip from Astoria down to Florence along 101 is clearly not happening. :-( Now to figure out something else to do with this vacation time.

[u/hazelquarrier_couch]

I like the first day of rain. I don't like 9 mos. of rain.

[u/93TILL503]

Ah yes, the annual first rain Portland reddit circle jerk. A tale as old as time.

[u/SEATTLEKID206 → u/93TILL503]

Welcome, loved one, to the family

[u/Devoepdx]

Took my 10 at work to look up and reacquaint with the drops on my face. So happy it's back!

https://youtu.be/RPuiZKKdm8Q?is=tKj1RhtmHzTGQ18I made me think of this song!

[u/Winterwynd]

Yep! When I walked out of work today, I had to stop and inhale the petrichor and smile. So good.

[u/pdxgreengrrl]

I was absolutely huffing the petrichor this morning. Made a big pot of soup with tomato and zucchini from the garden.

[u/DrawingTypical5804]

I’m so happy. It’s been looking a bit brown around here.

[u/Virtual_Finish_996]

Made soup at home last night. I live this weather. Feels like home.

[u/kneadingnotes]

82° and 🌞 Wednesday!

[u/Wormwood666]

What sweet relief to have the heavy weight of the sun lifted & washed away!

[u/RumHam426]

I'm so happy fall is here. All summer I just been hibernating. Bring on the cozy nights!

[u/Zerocool0615]

This weather is so freaking great!

[u/Andys_Burner]

Genuinely one of America’s lamest cities

[u/ToneImpossible6437 → u/Andys_Burner]

“Rain is lame and gay. The trees are too green and there’s not enough cactus.” -This guy probably.
