purrrrrrrrfect weather!

How could it be better?
It was forecast to be sunny and cold for the next few days. Now we have a chance of rain every day! Hopefully, this will bring the rivers up a bit and keep them perfect! Think? :smile: Am I dreaming?
It sounds, though, like the perfect scenario!
Besides, I'll take warmer rain than freezing cold fingers and east wind anyday!
