rain showers
Light falling water
Rain showers are brief periods of rain, typically light to moderate, that start and stop abruptly.
Unlike steady rain from large weather systems, showers come from smaller clouds and may alternate with sunshine: Expect scattered showers this afternoon.
The forecast phrase suggests intermittent wet spells rather than prolonged rainfall.
