downpour

I love a good torrential spring downpour, so I’ve felt a little cheated.

Some downpours are likely but there should also be drier interludes and spells of sunshine.

Even with the severe storms that battered a few parts of England with intense rain, hail and thunder on Saturday 22 March, many places avoided the heavy downpours.

And even more pressing, the officials warned in a Feb. 14 letter obtained by ProPublica, Vietnam is on the verge of its rainy season, when torrential downpours are common.

Damaging winds, heavy downpours, hail and even a weak tornado are possible, said Rose Schoenfeld, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Oxnard.
