It rained in a circle

Kaboogie · 04-03-2005 4:17am #1

Some years ago, I was painting arrows on the road some days before a cycle race was to travel the same route. As I was painting arrows at a right hand turn, it started to pour rain, so I ran to the car, for shelter. I then looked out at the rain and it was falling only over an area of about a 10 feet circle, where I had painted the arrow and no place else. Has anybody ever witnessed anything like this before...........

I have heard of local showers, but that takes the biccy

Actually I am in Kilkenny, but everybody there has a hurley allready.
It is a rough game anyway.

smoke.me.a.kipper · 08-03-2005 1:35pm

ive seen it rain in hexagons before. but not circles.

stagolee · 08-03-2005 5:46pm

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched C beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. wait... no, no, i just saw that in a film didn't i

I've seen a peanut stand, heard a rubber band, I've seen a needle that winked it's eye, but I think I'll have seen about everything, when I see rain fall in a specific area on a road where a series of arrow-like lines were being painted several days before a race.

Once, when I was about 15, I was walking home with a friend and we saw it absolutely lashing rain at the end of the road we'd just walked up. The rain was rapidly moving towards us so we ran, with the rain following us, until we reached the doorstep just as the rain hit us.
A unique experience

actually the exact opposite happens during a hurricane, you can have fine calm sunny weather while all hell is breaking loose around you.

Winters · 13-03-2005 4:07pm

Maybe your life is a TV show?

Like that Truman fella.

Chad ghostal · 13-03-2005 4:21pm

ORrrr maybe someone got a hose and decided to wet you. and missed...
or ..come to think of it... it might have beeen the hurleys themselves..
hurling is a paranormal sport etc etc.. everyone sees
spork borked? ..meh..

sanncoo · 15-03-2005 12:07pm

Or maybe he's David Gray in that video of his and he wasn't actually painting in a circle he was playing a small piano!!

You people are useless...

Kaboogie · 23-03-2005 6:56pm

OK Ye can all laugh,

but I know it did happen and it happened near Big Wood in South Kilkenny.

The circle was about 15 feet wide, and as I ran for shelter to my car, :rolleyes: I watched this patch of road get all the rain.

grimsbymatt · 31-03-2005 9:04am

Kaboogie · 01-04-2005 11:36am

grimsbymatt · 01-04-2005 12:18pm

Well, that's as maybe, but...

Kaboogie · 01-07-2005 4:19am

Dr.Feelgood · 01-07-2005 4:28am

HUP!!

*Page* · 01-07-2005 8:19am

Capt'n Midnight · 03-07-2005 1:20pm

Kaboogie · 06-07-2005 7:31pm

OK ............ look at what happened in Woodstock Music festival yonks ago. It rained here over the festival only. But this was for a different reason, I guess.

NotMe · 06-07-2005 9:05pm

No no no you're not getting the last say again.

Shabadu · 06-07-2005 9:12pm

Kaboogie · 13-01-2006 12:30am

Hello, I am back from the land that it never rains.
To clear up all the points above, there were no trees over me, no children around and God was not angry with me. So it did rain in a circle on th emiddle of the road only¬!

Shabadu · 13-01-2006 10:25am

Om Nom Shidai! Om Nom Shidai!

madrab · 13-01-2006 11:19am

And so it begins.

I see a great hand reaching out of the stars.

What do you want?

No one here is exactly what he appears.

Who are you?

You are The One who was.

Why are you here?

Do you have anything worth living for?

Shabadu · 13-01-2006 12:16pm

Did you ever see the Never Ending Story? What was the name he gave the empress at the end again?

Nevyn · 13-01-2006 12:45pm

and then he Named the child like empress after his mother 'Moon Child'

Bastian Balthazar Bux had a mother called Moonchild.
really that speaks volumes about haluicgenics while being pregant and making
sure to burden your own child with a name as bad as your own.

Shabadu · 13-01-2006 12:48pm

Hooray for Thaedypants

It rained in a circle
