seriously, though there is such a thing as the water cycle, which is where I'm going with this.
Rain is a form of precipitation (see also [[snow]]), part of the [[hydrological cycle]].
Rain is part of the [[water cycle]], in which "rain falls from the clouds, evaporates, and turns into moisture in the air, which then condenses to form new clouds and thus begins the cycle once again." [http://www.ebscobooks.com/books/ProductDetails.asp?CatalogID=90977]
The notion that rain is made when fairies cry is found in poetry and song.
Scientifically speaking, rain is a form of [[precipitation]], part of the [[hydrological cycle]].
Rain is formed when [[water vapor]] condenses within [[cloud]]s on minute particles of [[dust]] or [[sea salt]].{{fact}} As the small droplets merge, they become too heavy to remain suspended in the cloud and fall to the surface as rain.{{fact}}
