* When Andy Dufresne finally gets out of the prison in ''{{The Shawshank Redemption}}'', it's raining. It's even shown on the promotional poster. Of course, he had more reason than most to be happy with a heavy rainstorm, since he'd just literally "waded through a river of shit".

* In RobertEHoward's ConanTheBarbarian story ''The Hour of the Dragon'', the death of the king and his sons from ThePlague is immediately succeeded by a terrible storm -- but the next morning dawns clear and bright, with the end of the plague. This is interpreted as a sign from the gods of wonderful wonderfulness. (They're wrong.)

* I guess ''WolfsRain'' is a subversion - everybody ''would'' be happy that it's raining for the first time in decades if it weren't for the fact that... [[spoiler:they all die before it starts]]. But it ''does'' mark the start of the world's rebirth, so it's happy in that sense.

* "Let it Rain", by EricClapton.
* Sort of a mixture of an inversion and playing the trope straight in "Rain" by TheBeatles. The narrator sings that all the people run and panic in the rain, while he nonchalantly claims that he doesn't mind rain, and says the weather's fine and relaxing.

*** The scene compresses a bit from the books about Leto II terraforming the north pole of Dune, where the capital city was located, presumably involving magically created thunderstorms, and this issue was discussed when the sandworms started dying... so Yeah.
