The Various Ways to Describe RAIN

The usual forecast around here is 40's and chance of rain. It is the local joke--40's and chance of rain. Spring brings 50's and chance of rain and summer brings 60's and chance of rain.

This morning I listened painfully to a local forecaster try to vary his weather prediction of 50's and chance of rain over and over. Seriously, I pulled out pen and paper and wrote down each of his references to RAIN.
1. light rain
2. itty bitty rain shower
3. drizzle
4. spot showers
5. sprinkles
6. a few rain drops
