downpours

Rainy season brings torrential downpours for an hour or so twice a day -- which is always welcomed.

The most was about 250mm in a day, which is exceptional, but sudden, very downpours are common.

Fwiw, for being outside in extended downpours, the best rain coverings are short ponchos and rain skirts.

I would also wonder about snow accumulation and road handling in inclement conditions (including downpours and high winds).

I don't like it too cold (below freezing) and I don't like downpours (a light drizzle is ideal).

Climate change is drastically altering summers in Minnesota (wildfire smoke, drought, high AQI, high temps, extreme downpours).

In heavy downpours your eyes will be blocked by all the water.

They get a lot of the big squall-line fronts with heavy/torrential downpours in storm cells, while the mountains act as an extra lifting mechanism.

Not a week after our gutters were installed, we experienced one of the aforementioned downpours.

It’s absolutely fine with rain, even absolutely torrential tropical downpours - from experience - I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Warm yes but SF doesn’t have many thunderstorms and afternoon downpours.

These things have to run in downpours of rain.

The "rooves" themselves would channel water as would an aqueduct, possibly reorienting themselves to better handle local downpours.

I’ve never found a rain jacket that holds up to extended downpours other than the “rubbery” type materials.

And, no, "automatic" wipers never do their job perfectly when it comes do downpours, you always have to adjust them in one way or another.

("Better" in a production sense, of course.) While in Texas, the intermittent rains and occasional downpours would not make that possible.
