Rain, Rain, Go away!

Rain, Rain, Go away.. Come again another day!!
We've been experiencing heavy rains in our place right now. It started at 2 pm in the afternoon and as of 8:47 pm, the rain is still there accompanied by lightning and thunders. Just so you know, I'm not a pluviophile who loves rain. For me, rain brings sorrows.
I thought that this perception of mine about rain is not valid and I'm just over reacting. But to validate it, I tried to search in the internet if I'm just the only one in the world who hate rain but to my surprise, there are many. In fact, it was considered a phobia.
Pluviophobia is an intense fear of anything related to rain, such as storms, lightning, and thunder.
SYMPTOMS OF PLUVIOPHOBIA IN ADULTS:
Heightened anxiety which can spill over to a panic attack
Obsession with monitoring the weather forecasts for any prediction of rain
Trembling and shaking
Thoughts about death
Incoherence or inability to express oneself
As for me, I can't consider myself as one of those people who suffers Pluviophobia. I never experience those symptoms to be exact. I just don't really like rain because of these reasons:
You'll need to keep your wet umbrella somewhere in your handbag or bag. That's not something you'd like doing.
Clothes aren't drying as fast as they should be.
Every time it rains, there's always a power interruption.
As of the moment, we're experiencing brownout. I just hope that it will not last for long since I still have classes tomorrow. My cellphone battery is at 52℅ and I think I'll just sleep right after I publish this article to save my phone's battery consumption.
Earlier, my facebook friends posted some videos about the flashfloods that is experiencing as of the moment by the people in our Barangay.
Good thing we lived in an elevated area. I'm just hoping that everyone's safe especially to the people who's experiencing flashflood right now. Let's pray for their safety. Goodnight everyone!!
