Can you have such a thing as rain envy?

I suspect if you live in an area prone to drought you might, though as you're used to it you may not do...

However, I live in an area of the UK that is currently suffering from a severe lack of rainfall... the total for the last couple of months can be measured in small numbers of millimetres!

I arrived in London this morning to heavy, steady rainfall. It looked fab, in a refreshing sort of way. It smelt amazing - the last lingering remains of that incredible aroma that you get when it hasn't rained for a while. It sounded great - the pitter patter of drops on the carriage windowpane and then my umbrella.

Yes! You can definitely have rain envy!!!!
