torrentially
Like a deluge
Torrentially describes something happening in the manner of a torrent—a rushing, overwhelming flood.
Rain falls torrentially when it pours in sheets: It rained torrentially all night.
The word extends to anything pouring forth abundantly and forcefully: Words spilled from her torrentially, Sweat ran torrentially down his face.
