Petrichor - The Sound of Rain

[blythe025]

I love rain. I love the smell of the wet world after hot days.

I love that I just learned (from here) there's a name for the very specific sound of rain on concrete and tin rooftops. It's

Petrichor
Isn't that beautiful. It's like a draught of sweet liqueur for the soul.

And if you're not into that one, another word for that sound is

Tintinnabulation

which sounds like a party, a celebration of rain.

PS. I miss the rain. I hope it comes soon.
