I hate days like that, everything seems to snowball from the first little thing to constantly increasing degrees of severity.  
It helps me to have an anchor, something safe that I can try to take myself back to.  A memory or previous "win" for me.  Just something to break the cycle.
I'm glad you're having a better day today though!  Sounds like it finally stopped raining for you.  

........Now where's that ice cream?
