For several weeks, citizens of North Olmsted, Ohio—a small town a few miles west of a NASA research center—have been plagued by a mysterious force that has blocked their garage openers and car key fobs from functioning. But after many attempts by amateur sleuths and expert technicians to determine the source of the vexation, the problem has been resolved.
According to the New York Times, North Olmsted officials first began receiving reports about the issue in late April. Since then more than a dozen residents of the town and the neighboring Fairview Park have told authorities about their inability to use garage door openers and key fobs.

If we're going with the "something difficult to understand" bit, why do we need hints? Doesn't giving hints to a riddle imply that you're looking for a correct answer?
The only question you posed was
To which the answer is clearly "yes". Not that that's a particularly useful conclusion.
Next!
P.S: This "hint" just makes me think this entire thing is trolling.
"Is that really true?" "I just spent the last hour telling you to think for yourself! Didn't you hear anything I said?"

Ok, you all fail. The correct response (answer to the riddle) is:
"It was raining you idiot!"

That's not a riddle. That's a laffy taffy joke.
