The wind shook the roof and the rain lashed against it.

Outside the rain lashed against Water Gypsy 's decks and roof.

It had encountered bad weather the whole of the way: torrential rain lashed by gusty north- westerly winds made going difficult for the horses.

Then that, too, was swallowed up as rain lashed at the windows.
