tropical rain
Warm latitude deluge
Tropical rain is rainfall occurring in tropical regions, typically characterized by heavy, warm downpours.
The term appears in weather discussions and travel contexts: We got caught in a tropical rain shower.
Unlike temperate rain, tropical rain tends to fall in intense bursts, often daily during wet seasons, and feels warm rather than cold on the skin.
