quite a few years there was a bone dry year like this one, no rain through February. Then in March the clouds appeared and in one month there was an entire winters worth of rain, bringing everything back up to normal for the winter. Don't recall the year but it's been awhile

weather. So hot and dry in San Gabriel Valley. Hit close to 80 yesterday and very low humidity. My skin is so dry!

1. Never do a rain dance on a hill.
2. Make sure you have a lot of room so you don’t run into anything.
3. Spin around in clockwise circles.
4. Make up your own rain chant. It should be rhythmical and easy to say fast.
5. Yell your rain chant while spinning around in circles.
6. If you are trying to get rid of rain, spin in counterclockwise circles and say your chant backward

(everyone/tribe is unique, be creative, remembering to honor the earth. nothing can be taken less something given.)
