Tomorrow is my regular work from home day, so I'm excited that the rain is supposed to come then. Sorry to my fellow DC area bike commuters; I'll feel your pain in spirit, though.
You assume I don't like riding in the rain. Usually, as long as it's not a torrential downpour I'm totally into it. I actually prefer it some days. Less competition for space on the MUP.

There's something special about the sound of the tires on wet pavement, too, that I just really like. I'll feel your "not commuting today" pain in spirit.
