Breaking Records
We are currently on track for the most consecutive days of rain in Victoria! (You have to see it as exciting somehow.) Today is the 26th day of rain and we will break the record if it keeps raining through Friday, Jan. 20. Here's the details:
"Rain records are also in sight for Victoria, though that city is still 10 days short of the 32-day record that began Jan. 6, 1953.At least it didn't stop on Friday the 13th.
"Since the rainy streak began in that city -- Victoria recorded its 22nd day of consecutive rain Monday -- 150 mm have fallen on Victoria, 50 per cent more than a normal rainy winter, Environment Canada forecaster Anne McCarthy said.
"Normally, the city would have seen 30 hours of sun in the 22 days, but the total has been just over half that amount."

I took a long walk this afternoon and am worried that it might not rain today. Though, technically it has rained since midnight, but I don't know what hours they use in the counting. As I was walking, there was a couple walking behind me discussing that they hoped it would rain. "We've suffered this much, we might as well get something out of it."
So did it end up raining? I wanna know if you are gonna break the record or not!
