Rain is an excuse to stay indoors and not feel guilty about it.
Rain is best enjoyed from a front porch, preferably in a rocking chair.
When I lived out in the country, rain used to roll in on dark thunderclouds from the north while the sun was still shining in the west. Then the leaves would start to twirl, and the sky would open.
A rainstorm at night might wake you up, but it'll put you right back to sleep.
In the summer, after a shower, the sun will come out and make steam rise up from the grass and the earth.
From far away, rain is a curtain hanging from the clouds.
If you watch the rain, it'll set you thinking.
The smell before a rain charges the air, and you can't help but get a little excited.
A misty rain at night catches the streetlights and makes them glow like cotton-balls.
If you get caught out in the rain, even if you get soaked through, you can't really be that mad over it. There'll be someone there to laugh about it with you.
