Using Rain

Genesis 7:12 "And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights."

Rain is used a lot when trying to set a mood. It’s wet and uncomfortable.  The clouds make the day dark and the downpour makes it dreary. It’s depressing. It’s inconvenient and even destructive.

But it is also cleansing and refreshing. It can be fun splashing around. Maybe your character loves a good storm. If your characters are experiencing a drought, it can bring welcome relief.

You get to decide. Is the rain a positive or negative in your story?
