     G. regen, OS. & OHG. regan, Icel., Dan., & Sw. regn, Goth.
     rign, and prob. to L. rigare to water, to wet; cf. Gr. ? to

           in very small drops or particles, it is called mist;
           and fog is composed of particles so fine as to be not
           only individually indistinguishable, but to float or be
           suspended in the air. See {Fog}, and {Mist}.

        Nov[ae]-Hollandi[ae]}) of Australia.
  
     {Rain gauge}, an instrument of various forms measuring the
        quantity of rain that falls at any given place in a given
        time; a pluviometer; an ombrometer.

  Rain
     There are three Hebrew words used to denote the rains of
     different seasons, (1.) Yoreh (Hos. 6:3), or moreh (Joel 2:23),
     denoting the former or the early rain. (2.) Melqosh, the "latter
     rain" (Prov. 16:15). (3.) Geshem, the winter rain, "the rains."
     The heavy winter rain is mentioned in Gen. 7:12; Ezra 10:9;
     Cant. 2:11. The "early" or "former" rains commence in autumn in
     the latter part of October or beginning of November (Deut.
     11:14; Joel 2:23; comp. Jer. 3:3), and continue to fall heavily
     for two months. Then the heavy "winter rains" fall from the
     middle of December to March. There is no prolonged fair weather
     in Palestine between October and March. The "latter" or spring
     rains fall in March and April, and serve to swell the grain then
     coming to maturity (Deut. 11:14; Hos. 6:3). After this there is
     ordinarily no rain, the sky being bright and cloudless till
     October or November.
     
       Rain is referred to symbolically in Deut. 32:2; Ps. 72:6; Isa.
     44:3, 4; Hos. 10:12.
