after coming off some horrible rain storms this past weekend and memorial day, it made me think which holiday is the worst to have it rain on?

for me, it would probably be july 4th because of no fireworks or bar-b-que.

what about you?

Christmas Eve. It's supposed to snow, not rain. Although it usually rains, not snows.

New Year's Eve. Nothing spoils fireworks like a patch of rain.

The Summer Equinox (Sankt Hans Aften in Denmark). Nothing spoils a great big bonfire on the beach on a warm summer night, like a shower of rain.

Halloween. Usually there's a rain date for fireworks.

Halloween.. not something I really care about but for those that do, I'm sure it'd suck.

I haven't seen rain here in about a month or two now... and when it did, it sucked... like a whooping 2 minutes of rain (which then went east and became a storm)... Why can't we all have just nice rain.. no evil storms and whatnot
Aloha

I'm gonna say Ramadan, because that's like a month of rain, and nobody wants that.

Memorial day, 4th of July and Labor Day.

(Halloween as an alternative [as long as it's not pouring, I'm getting my candy!!!])
