as most people think.
B. Very small raindrops are almost spherical in shape.
C. Larger raindrops become flattened at the bottom,
like that of a hamburger bun, due to air resistance.
D. Large raindrops have a large amount of air resistance,
which makes them begin to become unstable.
E. Very large raindrops split into
smaller raindrops due to air resistance.

And if you're in the hot, sweltering humid Asia, rain is actually a welcome treat especially to kids everytime! I used to play in the rain A LOT! Thanks to the little scientific details about the shape of the rain. Never knew that.
