Wild Weather

Wild Weather. Rain. By the time raindrops reach the ground, they can be anywhere from one hundred to one thousand times larger than they were inside the cloud. The biggest raindrops are only about the size of a pencil eraser. It takes at least one million cloud droplets to form one raindrop.
