सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Estonians are very comfortable with rain. 'Kerge vihm' is rarely a reason to cancel plans. It is often associated with the freshness of the forest. Similar to Estonia, 'kevyt sade' is seen as a normal part of life. The focus is on having the right gear (like Marimekko raincoats). The British have a similar obsession with weather levels. 'Kerge vihm' would be 'a bit of a drizzle'. Rain is often romanticized in Japanese culture (e.g., in anime). 'Kosame' (light rain) is a common poetic device.

If you want to sound like a local, complain slightly about the 'tüütu kerge vihm' (annoying light rain) even if you don't mind it.
