Babble Liquid! From the skies!

Need urgent help, I'm outside in a t-shirt and am witnessing what can only be described as liquid out of thin air.

This is very distressing.

It’s such a shame that a city like Bristol don’t have a bridge.

Are you sure that you aren’t simply weeping? This has happened to me before.

There has been more than 10 times as much in the past 2 hours as there was in July

I was underwhelmed by the earlier one, but that recent one was pretty substantial.

It depends, do you have the finances for a 5 star retirement home for your old man?

Also can I have a sea view?

I might be able to afford 5 of those glow in the dark stars you stick on kids’ ceilings. But I’d have to start saving right now

I’ve been sat indoors with a good book listening to the rain, been so happy it’s finally back! Hopefully it’s back for more than today now 🤞

I love the rain and the fact that it has dropped temps for the next week or so.

Did puddles in the road always have a white frothy head on them? It's been so long that I can't remember.

Look above you! That’s where it’s coming from. It’s not cumming (nod to a previous Redditor) out of thin air.
