Have any of you heard of the expression "it's raining cats and dogs"?
I feel like that was demonstrated today...

Yes I’ve heard of it. Actually there’s a similar Chinese saying too lol.

Maybe English got it from the Chinese saying? I know there's lots of borrow-words from many languages, maybe that's where it came from!

In French it's "raining ropes" ^^

Which is a timely conversation because it's raining, it was supposed to snow but guess I'm out of luck.

Well raining ropes is better than sh*t lol. XD

I think it snowed a day or so ago.
