“… I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.” Leviticus 26:4 KJV
“He bindeth up the waters in his thick clouds; and the cloud is not rent [broken] under them.” Job 26:8 KJV
A regular-size cumulus cloud weighs as much as 100 adult elephants. A typical thunderstorm consists of 2000 cumulus clouds.
16 million tons of water evaporates from Earth’s surface every second.
A falling raindrop is not shaped like a teardrop, rather it begins as a sphere. As it grows its bottom flattens-out like a hamburger bun. Next it looks like an open parachute. Then it splits into two smaller, spherical drops, and so on.
Because of their size and the way they are formed falling raindrops cannot exceed a velocity of about 22 mph. Thus the falling water is not destructive, like the ballistic stream of a firehose, but is evenly distributed in small droplets to refresh the grass, trees, plants, crops, and Mankind.
