And could you tell me what sort of footwear you use? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155563 Wed, 12 May 2010 05:03:00 +0000 yublocka 155563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's what you get for living in the tropics! I'd say that calls for a cute umbrella katiepea!!! I have this cute leopard print umbrella I bought for $3 from the reject shop last year when I got caught out in the rain. Love it!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155102 Tue, 11 May 2010 13:29:04 +0000 Queen Mum 155102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hmmm, here in the bay area it seems to do the most raining early in the morning.... am I right fellow Bay girls? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155097 Tue, 11 May 2010 13:09:19 +0000 stringy 155097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no idea about Queensland, but I know when I was in Bali it rained at 2:45 nearly every day we were there. After a couple of days we'd start to look for a shop or bar at 2:30 so that we'd have somewhere interesting to wait in. I bet Bali and Queensland are close enough to get similar tropical patterns </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155072 Tue, 11 May 2010 11:23:33 +0000 Itari 155072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a good question I think it's true: it rains either just after sunrise or afternoons - and I live far, far away from Australia. The worst thing is that we have storms almost everyday from May to July (I like watching storms, but I don't like being soaked - and my poor dog is very afraid of thunders). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155064 Tue, 11 May 2010 10:14:15 +0000 Theresa 155064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL KP that's so funny!</p> <p>I must admit, up here, its been raining between 8.30-9am - school drop off time, rather than afternoons though. So same situation just different end of the day.</p> <p>Drives me nuts! But, my brothers girlfriend just told me that if you buy some magazine at the moment it has a free umbrella with it that is actually a really cool umbrella! (I think it was Dolly but I can't quite remember what she said - will have to check).</p> <p>So I guess if we have a cool umbrella it might be more tolerable LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155044 Tue, 11 May 2010 08:17:34 +0000 Louise 155044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep though here it is between 3.15 when the gates open to parents and 3.30 when the children finish school luckily we have canopies outside each room but the dash from car to school means a lot of soggy wet parents! x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155023 Tue, 11 May 2010 06:02:38 +0000 anne 155023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep!!! Although at the moment, here in the west, it is more likely to be unseasonably warm at that point. But I have been caught once already this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-does-rain-in-your-area-always-seem-to-be-at-3pm#post-155021 Tue, 11 May 2010 05:59:35 +0000 Katiepea 155021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firstly, I hope you don't mind me posing a question that has absolutely nothing to do with fashion or style, however, as my hair is now wet and my trousers are soggy (as a result of thread title), I just have to ask! :-)</p> <p>Q - Where you live, have you noticed that statistically, it is more likely to pour with rain between 2.50pm and 3.15pm (right when kidlets are due to be collected from school) than any other time time of day? </p> <p>I'm really curious as to whether this weather (tee - hee, yes word use intentional!) is a world-wide phenomenom that other mum's have noticed, irrespective of geography, or whether the weather is just a QLD, Australia quirk.</p> <p>As this is an international forum, I thought I'd ask out of pure curiosity - Hope you don't mind! </p>
