Described by the scientific community in the novel So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish as a “Quasi Supernormal Incremental Precipitation Inducer,” Rob McKenna is an ordinary lorry driver who can never get away from rain and he has a log-book showing that it has rained on him every day, anywhere that he has ever been, to prove it. Arthur suggests that he could show the diary to someone, which Rob does, making the media deem him a ‘Rain God’ (something which he actually is) for the clouds want “to be near him, to love him, to cherish him and to water him.”
