There is the question, I do not have the answer.

This morning was a torrential downpour with no wind surprisingly. Since the rain was falling straight down, I thought I wouldn’t have a problem staying dry. I was wrong. By the time I reached the bus stop, the back of my pants from the knee down were soaked through.

I believe I am holding the umbrella correctly. I use a medium-sized umbrella. I hold it at below-chest height about five inches away from my body.  My estimate is the umbrella provides a two foot radius of protection. I am of an average build, so no portions of my body are sticking out.

Yet, for no apparent reason, my pants are usually soaked through.  I need enlightenment. Google has failed in providing me with the answer.

The weather has been pretty wacky these last few days in San Francisco.  The tempature was in the 40s on Friday. There was almost non-stop rain and a high potential of flash floods in the surrounding area.  This morning, there was a hail storm just around six but by the time I walked out the door, the sun was out and there was nary a cloud in the sky. Wacky.

I can not handle cold weather.

Born and raised in San Francisco, I prefer the outside temperature to be around the high 60s to low 70s with mild humidity and slight wind. Vibrant blue skies and fluffy white clouds would round out the perfect day.

Perfect Day
