A little rain must fall


For the first time that I can ever remember I covered a high school graduation in the rain. Today's Stein High ceremony started under partly cloudy skies but ended in a steady rain.

Umbrellas were the order of the day not to shield the audience from the blazing summer suns instead from the raindrops from another winter-like storm bearing down on us.

Usually graduation ceremonies are marked by people nearly passing out in the summer heat so it was quite the sight to see people bundled up and shivering in the winter chill of late May. I have two more graduation ceremonies this weekend to cover and I am wondering what the weather will bring for their commencement ceremony.
