Yet at the same time he heard the rain beat a little harder against the window.

She turned the radio up loud as rain beat the top of her personal car.

The rain beat down and the wind was picking up.

As the rain beat down, there was nothing to do but pedal on.

The rain was still beating on the windows, and I could hear the wind in the trees.

The rain still beat on the church roof, but not so violently.

The rain was beating on the canopy of leaves above them and beginning to come through.

The hard rain was beating the hell out of the roses.

The rain beat a grim tattoo on the hard ground.

The rain beat a tattoo on the top of the closed vehicle.
