Raining here today also. Have to say I have never owned an umbrella in my life, and I am from the north east of England, the wettest place in the world
Au contrary my good man. Newcastle has an annual rainfall of 26.4 inches as compared to my neighboring town of Atlantic City ; 41.75 inches. The "wettest" place on earth for rainfall is Mt. Waialeale, Hawaii; 460 inches annual. You're practically in the desert.
To be fair, Yogi didn't say the "rainiest" place on eart, but the "wettest."
Your figures fail to account for spilled frosty, brewed beverages, tears, sweat and spit.
