Hot Water One of the weird things that happens at my house is that when it rains the water heater quits. I never have figured that out. It's a tankless water heater, so there's no tank of water all heated up waiting to go. When you turn on the hot water it flames on and super heats the water as it passes through.

Warm on the inside For some reason it rains almost every Easter. There was a time where it had rained 4 years in a row.… I think that's wrong, I think it's rained every year since 1996 because I can't remember an Easter Sunday at Hope when it didn't rain.
