Rain can be a powerful metaphor in poetry and song. I think Bob Dylan sometimes uses rain as an allusion to memory, will try to dredge up some examples from my old brain.
Living in the UK, rain can become a bit of a nightmare though. We have had a very wet and long Winter and only now enjoying the first rays of spring.
I do love thunderstorms though; that is the power of the gods and I can see why it evidenced the numinous to our ancestors in many ways.
I also like mist and fog; although they do make driving a bit tricky over here on occasion.
