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." [1]

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 clouds on minute particles of dust or sea salt.[Citation Needed] As the small droplets merge, they become too heavy to remain suspended in the cloud and fall to the surface as rain.[Citation Needed]
