My umbrella is puprle. It is also broken. I need to get a new one but it hardly ever rains here.
My umbrella is black. But it’s been gathering dust in the trunk of my car, along with my ice scraper, and lock de-icer for about two years now.
A note about Phoenix when it actually does rain: During the rain, people in a building cower in fear. They all crowd around the doorway, and peer outside, as if the rain will melt them if they walk in it. I’ve seen a herd of shoppers wait for 10, 20 minutes, because they are so freaked out by precipitation. I actually get a real kick out of watching this phenomenon.

I have 2.
Umbrella 1: Got free from work. Dark blue compact umbrella with the company name in white. I never use it–it’s too small.
Umbrella 2: Got from my dad. Dark blue and red golf (big) umbrella. The cloth detached from one of the ribs, but it still works better than umbrella 1.

Rain? hell, I’ve forgotten that word existed… it’s been -35 Celsius here for the past week… what the ‘h’ is rain?

I never carry an umbrella, they’re too much of a pain. Hats and hoods do it for me.
mmm…
left my monster-big, tri-color umbrella with my folks in Georgia (where wet, cold winters are the norm) years ago. Now that i’m in New Mexico, i don’t even own one.

The beside the door one is Blackwatch plaid. The just in case one in the car is a black collapsing one with a broken rib.
I’ve noticed that the Arizona reaction to rain is about the same as the Georgia reaction to snow - everyone gathers around the window and peers out in wonder. Kind of annoying if you have a window seat at the office; other than that a window seat isn’t so bad.
I notice all the Arizonans chimed in about their unused, dry-rotted umbrellas!
You know… I invented umbrella twirling.
I’ll bet not one male relative of mine in Arizona owns an umbrella. A co worker of mine pointed out the usefulness of having one on our frequent trips for work. I’m really glad I had one when I want to Atlanta.
Strainger: You think we’re bad about rain, how about when it snows here? It’s rare in Phoenix but Tucson gets a nice little snow about every other year or so. People go apeshit and forget how to drive with a light dusting of snow on the road. I lived in Northen Montana in the late eighties so I know how to drive in real snow and what black ice means.

Umbrella?? Bah thats for tourists!
But I do have a green hood attached to a green jacket that keeps me warm and dry!

I won mine from a radio station call-in contest I knew that Neal Hefti composed the original Batman theme 
The station (which has since undergone several format changes) was Q105 in Portland, OR, and the umbrella is blue with the white Q105 logo
