What do April Showers Bring?

In school I was taught that April showers bring May flowers. But, in Amboy, WA things are a little different. Yes we've had some flowers, but they have been overshadowed this month, by the great overshadowers: clouds. And rain.
So, I've arrived at the new mnemonic, for use in Amboy: April showers bring May showers!

In any case, things are green around here. I need to sharpen my scythe blade and make some hay.

By some small miracle today it is beautiful in Seattle and for the most part sunny! Shock of shocks!

I like your "turning the phrase" onto itself: "April showers bring May flowers".

That's a pretty good saying for all of Western Washington. Remember, the rain is what makes things green!! (Unlike SoCal where lots of sunshine makes everything brown -- and incendiary.
