DESCRIPTION:

National Rain Day originated in 1873 and picked up steam in the 1930s through newspaper articles. It is a bit of summer fun at its height, somewhat like groundhog day. Will it rain or not? Will he see his shadow or not?

The day centers on the town of Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, and began with a bet, a hat being the prize. Since the late 1800s, the people of Waynesburg believed it always rains on July 29. Though not quite every year, the odds are in their favor. Since 1873, it has rained on July 29 in Waynesburg 80% of the time.

If it rains, the hat stays with Waynesburg; if not, it goes to the other city. The Rain Day Festival, which has grown significantly in size and scope, began in 1979.
