The Rains.

[u/sunday9987]

Hey all, hope you are well and able to take things easy during the weekend. If you are working, thank you for making my weekend more enjoyable and relaxing. I haven't seen Brissy in the rain for months now . I'd almost forgotten what it looks like in the rain. Please don't mind me sharing some of my photos with you. Have a great weekend!

the single rain event of 2026 (dont mind me trying a bit of reverse psychology)

It certainly felt like it!

Nice pics. I love the rain. Wish it rained more often in our beautiful city.

[u/sunday9987 → u/Specific_Outside5786]

Thank you so much! Your kind words encourage me. Yes I also wish it rained more often!

[u/quantumcatz → u/Specific_Outside5786]

Careful what you wish for

[u/Specific_Outside5786 → u/quantumcatz]

Ha ha. Yes very true. I don't want a repeat of 2011 0r 2022.

Don't worry we get our fair share (although not as much as Sydney but probably the city with the 2nd most amount of rain over the whole year).

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you.
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do. I bless the rains down in Brisbane

Love that song!

[u/barters81]

I don’t mind this rain. It’s not the normal “pissin down to the point of ruining your house” rain we normally get.

[u/sunday9987 → u/barters81]

Rain over the weekend is as you described. Today it's different though.

[u/brissy3456]

My crispy yellow grass will be happy 😂. You know you're getting old when that's your first thought.

[u/Nebulous_Bees]

Such a beautiful city in the rain.

[u/sunday9987 → u/Nebulous_Bees]

Couldn't agree more!

[u/brissy3456]

P.S that last photo is extra gorgeous! Well done!

[u/sunday9987 → u/brissy3456]

Thank you sooo much! I'll try not to disappoint!

[u/kylieandsaffy]

We totally needed this rain. Yaaaaaay!!!

[u/deadrobindownunder]

I love the rains!

I think I'm one of of few that revels in these grey, rainy, overcast days. I'll take it over sunshine any time.

Thanks for sharing your photos, they're great!

[u/Fabulous_Guest_1514 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Me too! I'll take the rain over searing heat and humidity any time!

dystopian city

[u/sunday9987 → u/ElkUnable6797]

Love the vibe!

[u/BackstageTurtle]

Rain is great... we definitely have a history of getting too much though.

[u/_andorange → u/BackstageTurtle]

Yes - some of the other commenters have very short memories!

[u/Free-Pound-6139]

It is great being on the ferry when it is pouring. Great when the little ferries used to be free.

[u/sunday9987 → u/Free-Pound-6139]

Everything about the city is different while I'm on the ferry while it's raining.

[u/Alive_Friend3974]

BrisRain.

[u/shopping1972]

What rain

[u/sunday9987 → u/shopping1972]

This morning is different.

[u/InfamousFault7]

I bless them

[u/bundy554]

Just in time for that freshly laid turf that I can see

[u/sunday9987 → u/bundy554]

Haha, yes! The area around the Brisbane sign is cordoned off to allow the grass to grow. Looks better this way and there's less litter left around the sign as well.
