I used to think that the clouds moving makes wind.
when i was young i used to think hail was made out salt water, like from the ocean
I also used to believe that the song "Rain Rain, Go Away," could actually make the rain go away if sung enough times! Many were the times when I would stand by the window, dutifully, singing "Rain rain, go away, come again another day. All the children want to play... Rain rain, go away," etc. When the rain stopped, I used to think it was because of my singing "Rain Rain, Go Away." In my defence, I was only five at the time!
THE WIND CHILL FACTORY - OK.
I once asked my dad if the stars were the holes in the sky where the rain fell through - that's why it fell in droplets.
I used to believe that my choice of pyjamas to wear would determine the following day's weather.
I used to think if you walk far enough to the rainbow, there will be pot of gold
Back in kindergarden, my friend and me used to run after snowflakes, yelling at them. We imagined they would get frightened and thus multiply to "defend" themselves. And that was just what we wanted - the more snow, the better.
I used to believe that whenever it rained, god was pissing on the world.
My dad had me convinced that dark storm clouds were actually webs for monstrous "cloud spiders." The first time I flew straight into one of those clouds as a kid (dad was a small-plane pilot), I was terrified and convinced we were flying into a web. Dark clouds still freak me out.
Up until middle school, whenever someone said "Wind Chill Factor" I thought it was wind shield factor, until one winter I wanted to go outside and play in the snow, and someone told me "but the wind chill factor is 3 degrees" and I said "Don't worry, we won't go near the wind shield".
Whenever I saw jets pass by, I noticed that they left a trial of white stuff behind it. I figured that the sky must be low on clouds and Jesus was flying around to make more. Whenever a jet passed over, I would run out of the house to see Jesus fly by.
when i was a child, i used to believe the clouds were made out of cotton.
i used to think that their was a specific set of clouds that would go over my town and when their werent couds they were sleeping in the forest at the edge of town
I always thought there was some guy on a tall ladder watering the clouds.
I used to believe there was one set of clouds that went around the world.
that I was so greedy, After Thunderstorms and I could see a rainbow, that I would run to the nearest end of the rainbow to find the pot of gold.
Rain is the tears of Allah.
I used to think (because I was told by my dad) that when it rains while the sun is shining, the devil is whipping his wife.
I used to believe that when it rained, it actually was raining all over the world, when it was day it was all over the world and the same at night.
I also had figured out how raindrops were formed! God had this really huge bucket which had tiny holes at the bottom so when he wanted to rain he would simply take the bucket, fill it with water and hold it over the world!
Also, in the song "sweet dreams" by Eurythmics, i was hearing "sweet dreams are made of cheese" which i found very strange because cheese is not sweet.
