No Moon, No Stars, Just Rain

I was driving South on the 280 in the rain with my son - he was two or so. We were on our way to Target, his favorite store. He was at the age where he could find the moon in the sky, and he'd point to it and say, "Moon!" He was also just learning that the moon wasn't always in the sky - it's not always night - and even if it is night, the moon still might not be visible. So he's looking out the window, and there's rain and an overcast sky. After careful observation, he exclaimed, "No moon." I agreed with him. We decided to check to see if there were any stars. He exclaimed, "No stars." And we both verified, "Just rain." And here's what that sounds like.
