Not sure this qualifies -- it is "raining down" on the walkway. If too much of a stretch I'll delete.

Quite an interesting variety of shot here made for a difficult decision.
I am going with Ed's Pop Up Shower as my top pick. Those clouds look so ominous.
Rob comes in a close second place.
Thanks and congrats to all of the submissions.
