Unlucky Weather in Phoenix Arizona
The State of Arizona comprises the extreme south-western portion of the United States. It is bounded on the north by Utah, on the east by New Mexico, on the south by Mexico, and on the west by California and Nevada. A woman had been living in Phoenix Arizona for 13 months. While talking to a friend of hers back east, she spent a considerable amount of time boasting about how wonderful it is to live there.
“The scenery is beautiful, everyone is so friendly, and the weather is gorgeous,” she noted.
That fall, her friend came to Phoenix AZ to visit for a week. The first day she was there, it rained. The woman was so disappointed, especially after claiming how wonderfully sunny it always was.
“I can’t believe it’s raining. It almost never rains,” she whined.
In an attempt to console her, her friend replies, “But it’s a dry rain.”
