 From "it's a fine mist" to "oh my it's a downpour" to "holy moly it's raining cats and dogs" there are quite a few terms to describe wet weather. So stay dry while you find some more in this puzzle where all of the vowels have been left in place...

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
