overcoming dark clouds that it was going to be a storm. That should have been a sign. But playing soccer in the rain, that was my euphoria. Sinking into each step on the muddy grass felt like walking on clouds. Tiny raindrops hitting your face gave you relief from the hot and sweaty summer games. Slide tackling in the mud made you feel like a child playing in the playground. For me, the rain added fuel to the game. Falling into the wet grass, feeling the pieces of mud hit your knee caps and face added

comes to mind when you think of the rain? In the bustling world of New York City, it seems like anything that falls out of the sky is a direct adversary to the never-ending schedules of our lives. Though our collective view of the rain may be as dark and dense as the sky it falls from, there is much more significance and hope in the wet dread than we can see. By taking natures biggest nuisance and bringing it into the city that simply doesn’t have time for rain, we can find a new dimension for understanding

A biome is a large area filled with complex fauna and flora communities that are created and maintained by its climate. The characteristics that go into defining a biome are mostly abiotic factors. Abiotic factors such as climate, geology, soils, and vegetation. There are five major biomes on earth’s surface. Amongst these five, there are sub-biomes, and in these are many more ecosystems. The Tundra biome and desert biome display very similar traits. They both contain little to no life, harsh

Also, since Location A is located in a desert and deserts do not have high populations or this much rain, this picture cannot have been taken in Location A.

every emotion from hopelessness to happiness. After five years of waiting to meet his one and only, Daisy, the day is met with “pouring rain” and continues throughout much of the day (Fitzgerald 88). After much of the preparations are done, the rain cools down “to a damp mist” with “occasional thin drops” that “(swim) like dew” (Fitzgerald 89). Fitzgerald uses the rain to describe the turmoil going on inside of Gatsby. The weather represents the nervousness of meeting Daisy and the anxiousness of being

the author sure has beauty, and more often than not, the sun is also shining. Very rarely, does it rain in Italy, (at least according to the book), but when it does, does it have dramatic timing.

He begins with a very common line among stories; “It was a dark and stormy night.” This ensures the same response from all readers. Rain can be used to add dramatic effects to a scene which is why we all have the same negative reaction to the phrase. The main idea Foster is trying to explain is that rain never

As evapotranspiration occurs in the water cycle from the forests, the water rises up to the atmosphere and the wind moves the rain. So when trees are cleared, the cycle of losing natural resources continues as fewer trees lead to less water to evaporation in the water cycle which decreases the precipitation the Amazonian forest need. This finally leads to more death of trees and
