DOES IT RAIN IN BOISE???

So, we have lived in Boise for about a month now, and it has not rained since we have been here! We watched as "home" (Sikeston) was hit by what was left of Ike, and couldn't believe how things are so different. Well, Scott left for Sikeston last night, and so the kids and I camped out in the living room. I knew we had a chance of rain, but I was shocked to actually hear thunder! So, around 3AM, it started ot rain!! And now, at 10:30AM it is STILL raining. I am loving it, cause I just love ot hear the thunder and rain hitting the house. But on the downside...why did it have to rain on a Saturday??
