    At least the cats land on their feet. The dogs just turn into poodles (puddles).

    The only thing worse than raining cats and dogs is hailing taxicabs and buses.

    I once tried to explain the expression to a native French speaker who had never heard it before. We established that the French equivalent was “Il pleut à boire debout” (It’s raining (so hard that) you could drink standing up.")

    I’m always fascinated by words…
