We generally don't use umbrellas in Oregon. It is a waste of time when the rain
comes down so hard that it goes upwards from the ground. Remember that scene in
Forrest Gump when he was in Nam and the rain was coming upwards? That's a
regular rainy day in Oregon. It is also dangerous when the wind gets high.
Umbrellas do not last long here.

Yeah, they're pretty useless here too during our wicked summertime downpours
when it's best not to be out anyway because of the frequent lightning - this is
the lightning capitol of the U.S. Wearing rain gear is pointless too - it's so
hot you'll just get soaked in sweat so might as well put up with the rain.

Here in Arkansas we don't usually get enough rain to bother with umbrellas, we
just walk between the rain drops anyway.

I generally don't use umbrellas either. Once I did though and I ran into a
hottie who didn't use underwear. Crazy weather that day
