Right as rain

Why is rain 'right'?

A quick check on google says that its with regards to a sense of "satisfactory", and "security" - so that to have rain is ergo, a secure and good thing.

Marvellous I suppose if your reservoir is a wee bit low. Mind, absolute bobbins if your guttering is minced and your window frame rains in at 4 in the morning.

Which is when I have to get up.

Thus and therefore my splendid holiday comes to an end.

I'll tell you about it later - it was mint.

In Ireland

they describe gentle drizzle as 'soft rain' - wonderful term.
