RAIN DAY – July 29, 2023

There probably would have been no life without rain, and that’s why we celebrate Rain Day on July 29. Various people and cultures have celebrated rain and its life-giving power through prayers, arts and music, folklore, and more. Rain doesn’t just water our trees and makes the earth fresh and green, the first spells of the shower after a long stretch of summer brings us so much joy! If you are lucky enough to get some rain on Rain Day, head outside to dance, walk, or sing in the rain. Today is the perfect day to feel grateful for the lovely planet that we live in and its many miracles.

History of Rain Day

Rain Day is celebrated in some way or other in most cultures in the world, and this is a day that has been celebrated for a long time now. Records show that the first Rain Day was celebrated as early as in the 1800s. William Allison, a pharmacist, is the one who should be thanked for creating the much-loved Rain Day. Legend has it that Allison had a drugstore located on High Street, in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, and to him, it seemed that every year on July 29 it would rain without fail. The pharmacist grabbed the opportunity and declared July 29 to be celebrated as Rain Day every year!

Since then, Allison would also keep a yearly record of the rainfall on this specific date, and later his brother, Albert Allison started doing the same in the 1920s. The antics of these two brothers reached the offices of The Byron Daily and they started recording this mystical event which kept happening every year. The event probably would have remained small and local if it was not for a newsman from the area. In the 1930s, John O’Hara decided that he would send stories about Rain Day to other newspapers. As more and more people found out about Rain Day, the celebrations became widespread too. And today, newspapers and other media outlets often call up those in Waynesburg to find out if it is raining on this date. Of course, other people have started celebrating this date in their own ways. A very common way of celebrating Rain Day is by simply learning about rainfall and the importance of it, and spreading awareness about rainwater conservation.

Learn about Rain Day

Depending on where in the world you live, rain may be something that you are very much used to! For some people, they see more rain than sun, and this can cause them to become a bit frustrated by it. After all, no one likes being caught in the middle of a massive downpour, do they? However, there are a lot of reasons why we should love rain!

Yes, rain is important for certain industries, but you do not need to be a farmer in order to appreciate rain. Rain can be incredibly soothing. Have you ever laid in bed and listened to the raindrops hitting your window? It is so soothing and relaxing.

In fact, a lot of people play audio of raindrops to try and help them get to sleep at night. If you are someone who has trouble sleeping, give it a try! Rain is widely associated with relaxation. How many of you have used a rainy day as the perfect excuse to have a snug and cozy duvet day? 

Rain also gives us the opportunity to show off our stylish rainwear! However, from a more technical and scientific point of view, rain is a vital part of the water cycle. Rain is vital to all life on Earth. Rainfall represents the main way in which water in the skies comes down to earth, providing drinks for animals and plants, recharging the underground aquifers, and filling our rivers and lakes.

When you think about it from this perspective, you see why rain is so critical, and why it is something that should be cherished and celebrated, which is what Rain Day is all about. 

History of Rain Day

This is a day that has been celebrated for quite some time now. In fact, Rain Day first took place in the late 1800’s. We have a pharmacist, known as William Allison, to thank for this. He had a drugstore, which was located on High Street, which is the main street in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania. He remarked that it always seemed to be raining on the 29th of July.

Because of this, he decided that we would keep a yearly record of the rainfall on this specific date. After the 1920’s, his brother, Albert Allison, continued to record the results. The late Byron Daily recorded this mystical event, which kept happening every year. It would have remained a local event if it was not for a newsman from the area.

In the 1930’s, John O’Hara decided that he would send stories about Rain Day to other newspapers. Because of this, Rain Day ended up spreading to all corners of the world. Every year, newspapers and other media outlets will often call into Waynesburg to find out if it is raining on this date.

Of course, other people have started to celebrate this date in their own areas by simply learning about rainfall and the importance of it, as well as spreading this awareness.  

How to celebrate Rain Day

There are a number of different ways that you can celebrate Rain Day. If you happen to live near Waynesburg, you will definitely want to consider making a trip to the town and celebrating. There are bound to be a number of different events that are going on.

If you don’t live anywhere near this part of the world, this does not mean you cannot celebrate. If it is raining in your area, why not do a bit of dancing in the rain? There is something incredibly invigorating about this!

Why not treat yourself to a new jacket on Rain Day? There are so many different options to choose from. Biker jackets, macs, caps, blazers, swing coats, fur jackets, bomber jackets, parkas… to name a mere few! And that is without even mentioning the various materials, colours and designs on the Internet.

Of course, the choice is a great thing, but it can definitely make it difficult when it comes to buying a jacket or coat. You find yourself torn between an array of gorgeous styles. The last thing you want to do is make a quick-fire purchase and then end up with a jacket you never wear because it does not protect you from the rain outside!

Before you go for the out-there pink patterned mac, you need to ensure you have your wardrobe staple, i.e. something that goes with most of your outfits and you can wear again and again. Colour is always an important consideration. Classic colors, such as navy, cream and black, never go out of fashion.

You can’t go wrong with one of these shades. That’s not to say you can’t go for a vibrant or bold color! Red raincoats have been at the height of fashion for many years – the perfect way to brighten up a winter day. 

You can also spend Rain Day learning more about rain and the importance of it. Thanks to the Internet, it is easier than it ever has been to get our hands on information and learn more about the world. You can find out about parts of the world that have the most rain, as well as those parts of the world that barely get any rain at all.

There are also a lot of interesting facts about rain as well, some of which may surprise you. For example, did you know that there is such a thing as phantom rain? This refers to raindrops that do not reach the ground. 

You can also spend some time learning about how rainfall is predicted from the different types of clouds. It really is a fascinating subject that is worth delving deeper into. Why not share some of your knowledge with your friends, family members, and followers on social media too? We are sure that they will be fascinated to learn more about your findings, and this will help to spread awareness about the day in general as well, which is always a good thing.

DEAR CUSTOMERS! Please pay attention to important news!

For many years RENI has made every effort to keep the price at the same level system – calculations at the rate of the Central Bank.

As you know, the perfume composition that we use in the production of perfumes is French. In European countries, over the past few months, energy resources have significantly risen in price and this could not but lead to an increase in the cost of both production processes and all other components (packaging, logistics, etc.). All these factors eventually, unfortunately, influenced the price of the finished product. nine0972
