Yes! In the warmer areas of the world - right now I'm referring specifically to Thailand - there are rainy seasons and drier seasons. The May-August months tend to be warm and quite moist. Indeed, if you take a look at the local weather [click here for the link; discouraging, isn't it?], you'll find that tomorrow it will rain. Sunday it will rain. Monday it will rain. Tues-... well, you get the picture, I'm sure! This is the rainy season. I carry an umbrella with me for that time of day when the rain appears. Last night, for instance, it rained. But when I woke up this morning and went exploring, I was astonished.

At night, many of the small streets had some water in it, so I grabbed a ride from a taxi! The taxi driver was clearly not happy about the conditions of the road. I hadn't realized it, but the road we were traveling on became partially submerged at one point. When we went over a bump in the road, I felt the bottom of the car hit the water below - hard. To compensate, we left the driver with a nice-sized tip.
