"the rain had not stopped for days"


"it was beginning to rain"

Rain is forecast for tomorrow.
Come inside out of the rain.
We had heavy/light rain all day.
We got caught in pouring/torrential (= a lot of) rain without either raincoats or umbrellas.
There will be showers of rain/rain showers (= short periods of rain) in the east.
It looks like rain (= as if rain is going to fall).

look, the sky is raining, the water has reached our feet

I want to go play football but it is rain
