If God is omnipotent then surely he can do anything!? My intuition tells me he

If God is omnipotent then surely he can do anything!? My intuition tells me he can defy logic because surely he created it. I know philosophers will then ask me if it is possible for God to create a world where it both doesn't rain and rains at the same time. I am then forced to say that of course this doesn't seem possible. But...this leaves me with two questions: (a) Why do philosophers always have to talk about 'possible worlds'!? (b) Surely a world of contradictions only seems implausible to us because we are reasoning from the knowledge and experience we have in this world. We can't conceive of such ideas as not raining and raining at the same time because we are bound by the logic of this world.
