OK, I'd pictured English rain as just more that constant, steady sort. Admittedly, I've never been to England, but in the European countries I've visited, thunder and lightning seem to be uncommon. Here, those giant storms are common enough that I've had 3 near misses with lightning in my life.
Now it is even managing to be humid and sultry without being sunny. That pretty much describes Michigan, heh. The only state in the US with more cloud cover is Florida, oddly enough.
