Cloud Juice? Or Is It Liquid Sunshine?

I'm so sick of saying the word rain (ha-ha-ha) that I went to Dictionary.com and looked up synonyms for the word. They include the following:

"cloud juice" (I like it!)

"cat-and-dog weather" (not bad)

"window washer" (so true)

"wet stuff"

and the always popular, but boring, "liquid sunshine."

What I'm wondering is...have you heard others? I'm taking suggestions and would appreciate yours, so I don't have to say 'rain' every single second of every forecast! My email is

bsussman@kgw.com

So please send your suggestions my way. Have a good one,

Bruce Sussman

A funny story- a Pastor friend told me a story about preaching in India. He said,"It was raining cats and dogs." The Indian interpreter looked confused and said,"Apparently small animals were falling from the sky."
Nothing like slang to make the language barrier thicker!
