Russians

A Russian couple were walking down a street in Moscow one night when the man felt a drop hit his nose, "I think it's raining" he said to his wife.
"No that felt like snow to me, dear" Said his wife.
"No, I am sure it was rain" insisted the man.
They were about to have a major argument about whether it was raining or snowing. Just then, they saw a communist party official walking towards them.
"Let's not fight about it" said the man. "Lets ask comrade Rudolph whether it's officially raining or snowing".
As the man approched, the husband said "Tell us comrade Rudolph, is it raining or snowing?"
"It is raining of course," he replied, and walked on.
But the woman insisted. "I know that felt like snow," she said.
Her husband replied ,"Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear".
