Shut off all taps and faucets. Repair all leaks. Don't allow it to drain away. Use water harvesting methods to collect rain water, which can be used to wash a car, flooring and for watering plants\n\nUse only as much as is required.

"Rain plays a major role in the hydrologic cycle in which moisture from the oceans evaporates, condenses into clouds, precipitates back to earth, and eventually returns to the ocean via streams and rivers to repeat the cycle again. There is also a small amount of water vapor that respires from plants and evaporates to join other water molecules in condensing into clouds"\n\n" 90% of atmospheric water comes from evaporation, while the remaining 10% is from transpiration."\n\n The total amount, or mass, of water in the water cycle remains essentially constant, as does the amount of water in each reservoir of the water cycle. This means that rate of water added to one reservoir must equal, on average over time, the rate of water leaving the same reservoir.\n\nThe adjacent table (at the site below) contains the amount of water that falls as precipitation or rises as evaporation, for both the land and oceans. The runoff and groundwater discharge from the land to the oceans is also included. From the law of the conservation of mass, whatever water moves into a reservoir, on average, the same volume must leave. For example, 107 thousand cubic km (107 × 10³ km³) of water falls on land each year as precipitation. This is equal to the sum of the evaporation (71 × 10³ km³/year) and runoff (36 × 10³ km³/year) of water from the land."

Actually, no one has quite gotten into the reality.  Rain is almost all rain.  But something like 99% of all precipation drops form around something called condensation nuclei.  Basically that's a fancy term to say some small particle in the air.\nThis can be dust, clay, sea salt, pollutants (leading to smog, acid rain, etc), even tiny insects... whatever's available.  Water actually takes advantage of the particle's curvature, allowing water to condense even though the air isn't 100% saturated.\nCloud seeding is an attempt to induce additional rainfall by adding more particles.  It is only marginally useful in most places.\n\nThere are also small amounts of mixed in gases (nitrogen and oxygen mainly) and any other pollutants the raindrop comes into contact with while falling through the atmosphere.\n\nBut mainly rain is just water.  Awesome stuff, too!\n\nHope I helped,\nGod bless,\nShane

Well it's in the tropics.  It rains a lot.  And it's a forest.  Hmmm... Not sure.

The rainiest place on Earth is Lloro, Colombia, receiving an average of 1,330cm (525 inches) of rain a year.\n\nps.\nQuestion:What is the rainiest place on Earth?\nPossible answers: \n\n\nThe rainiest place on Earth is Lloro, Colombia, receiving an average of 1,330cm (525 inches) of rain a year. \n\nIt is said that Pohnpei is the second rainiest place on earth, after Mt. Waiale'ale on the island of Kaua'i. Kolonia gets between 170 and 200 inches of rainfall annually, while the island's interior nets over 400 inches! \n\nThe rainiest place on Earth is in Hawaii. \n\nThe rainiest place on Earth is in Tutenendo, Columbia. \n\nThe rainiest place on Earth is a town called Cherrapunjee, India where in one year it received 86 feet 9 inches. \n\nThe swamp is the rainiest place on Earth, receiving nearly 400 inches of rain per year, so expect wet and slippery conditions.

Well, i was involved with some folks who were catching the rain off their rooftop in barrels, then using it to water gardens etc.  They had to modify the downspouts to go into the barrels.  Any way to catch, direct and store the water will work.

Wow. If the air at ground level is very dry, the rain will evaporate before it can hit the ground. This is called "virga."

Liquid water, by and large, with some dissolved materials.

You store things in it. And sometimes you put a plug in it, so it can't leak out.

find a mountain, hill, or other land area that is elevated, that collects water.\n\nDig a trench, or path, so the extra water flows through it.\n\nMake sure the path you dig goes into another body of water, like a pond, lake, or other water area.

it depends on how big it is on where you want to hid it.  if it is small i would say but it near a bench that is on a cement platform.  one that is off the side walk but next to it because they usually will not move them because it is a waste of money to do so.  so go like 3 feet from the edge of the cement and put it there because when it rains it will run off the cement and cause a lot of mud so you want to put it a little farther away to keep it out of a puddle.  you should get a watter proof bag and put it in upside down so when it dose rain is is not going on to the top it will help preserve what is in there

Practices and Practitioners\n\nDelhi \nThe national capital territory, (NCT), of Delhi receives 611 mm of rainfall on an average annually and the number of rainy days are as low as 20-30. (A rainy day is specified as a day with more than or equal to 2.5 mm of rainfall). The geology of Delhi comprises Alwar quartzites and alluvium whose vertical hydraulic conductivity, (permeability), is high compared to the horizontal permeability. This makes the conditions favourable for artificial recharge.Thus most of the urban rainwater harvesting efforts revolve around recharge of aquifers which is the best option available taking into consideration the rainfall pattern and availability.\n\nPotential of rooftop water availability in National Capital Territory of Delhi \n\nRoof Area in Sq.m Annual rainfall in (litres) Quantity of rainfall available for harvesting (litres) \n50 30,550 18,330 \n100 61,100 36,660 \n500 305,500 183,300 \n1000 610,000 366,600 \n\n(Note: a.Annual average rainfall of Delhi=611 mm; b. runoff coefficient is assumed as 0.60;Sq. m to be read as square metre) \nAn analysis done based on the rainfall availability and demand supply gap shows that even 50 per cent of the rainwater harvested could help in bridging the demand supply gap.\n\nCase studies\nPractitioners \nCentre for Science and Environment (CSE)\n41 Tughlakabad Institutional Area\nNew Delhi 110062\nTel: 011- 26081124, 26083394, 26086399\nFax: 011- 26085879 Website: www.cseindia.org\n\nN C Bose Croos\nExecutive Director\nAction for Food Production (AFPRO)\n25/1A, Institutional Area\nPankha Road, D- Block, Janakpuri\nNew Delhi 110058\nTel: 0112-5555412, 5553652\nFax: 0112- 5500343\nEmail: afpro@vsnl.com      Ms Taranjot Kaur Gadhok\nSenior Fellow\nHuman Settlement Management Institute (HSMI)\nHUDCO Bhavan, IHC, Lodhi Road\nNew Delhi 110003\nTel: 0112-4360323\nFax: 0112-4360323, 4365292\nEmail: raranjot@cssnet.com \n         \nM M Dutta\nNational Professional Officer\nWorld Health Organization (WHO)\nNirman Bhavan, Maulana Azad Road\n'A' Wing\nNew Delhi 110001\nTel: 0112-3018955, 3792179\nFax: 011 - 3018955\nEmail: dattamm@whoindia.org      Ved Prakash Kothiyal\nSuperintending Engineer\nWater Resource Development\nNational Water Development Agency (NWDA)\n18-20, Community Centre, Saket\nNew Delhi 110017\nTel: 0112- 4672398, 6519164 \n         \nAkshay Kaul\nConsultant, Ecological Planner\nTVB School of Habitat Studies\nVASHRA\n203, South Ex Plaza - I, NDSE- II\nNew Delhi 110049\nTel: 0112-6254004, 6252540\nFax: 0112-6836891\nEmail: akaul98@yahoo.com      Indian National Trust for Art and Cultural Heritage (INTACH)\n71 Lodi Estate\nNew Delhi 110003\nTel: 01124631818, 4632267, 4632269\nFax: 0112 4611290\nEmail: intach@del3.vsnl.net.in\nWebsite: www.intach.net \n         \nDelhi Jal Board (DJB)\nVarunalya Phase - I\nKarol Bagh\nNew Delhi 110005\nTel: 0112- 3675434      Central Ground Water Board (CGWB)\nState Unit Office, Jamnagar House Mansingh Road\nNew Delhi 110011\nTel: 0112- 3384355 \n         \nSuresh Kumar Rohilla\nProject Director 'A'\nNational Capital Region Planning Board (NCRPB)\nIndia Habitat Centre\nCore 4 1st Floor, Lodhi Road\nNew Delhi 110003\nTel: 0112- 4642283/87, 4601197, 4628179\nFax: 0112- 4642163\nEmail: srohil@hotmail.com, \n          srohil@mantramail.com       Ashish Shah\nProgramme Coordinator\n(Environment Conservation)\nVasant Valley School\nSector -C, Vasant Kunj\nNew Delhi 110070\nTel: 0112-6892787\nFax: 0112-6185108\nEmail: signus.cepheid@usa.net \n \nBangalore \n\nAccording to a study conducted by the Centre for Symbiosis of Technology, Environment and Management (STEM), a Bangalore based research group, the demand supply gap is met by groundwater exploitation.

Water! Most of the earth is covered with water.

Earlier it was Cherapunji, India but now I think the record of highest rainfall has surpased in a different place. I am sorry, I  can't get the name right now!

None, unless you put some in it or it rains!

Get a clean 1 or 2 gallon metal container with a screw top cap. Put an ounce or two of hot water in it and place in hot sun without cap!\n\nPut the cap on tight and immediately place in a very cool area. Soon the metal container will be crushed because the hot water vapor created by the container being in the hot sun will condense back into liquid  leaving a partial vacuum in the sealed metal container. \n\nThe weight of the air outside the sealed container will crush it inwards.\n\nIf you do this please be careful!
