sheets of rain
Walls of water
Sheets of rain describes rainfall so heavy and continuous that it forms what appears to be solid curtains or walls of water: Rain came down in sheets, reducing visibility to near zero.
The image captures how intense downpours can look like fabric hanging from the sky rather than individual drops.
