Rain requires the presence of a thick layer of the atmosphere to have temperatures above the melting point of water near and above the Earth's surface. On Earth, it is the condensation of atmospheric water vapor into drops of water heavy enough water dropping from the eaves An eave is the edge of a roof. Eaves usually project beyond the side of the building generally to provide weather protection. Some buildings, such as Craftsman bungalows, have very wide eaves with decorative brackets.

Legal relevance
By an ancient Anglo-Saxon law Anglo-Saxon law is a body of written rules and customs that were in place during the Anglo-Saxon period in England, before the Norman conquest. This body of law, along with early Scandinavian law and continental Germanic law, descended from a family of ancient Germanic custom and legal thought. However, Anglo-Saxon law codes are distinct from, a landowner was forbidden to erect any building at less than 2 feet from the boundary of his land, and was thus prevented from injuring his neighbour's house or property by the dripping of water from the landowner's eaves. The law of Eavesdrip has had its equivalent in the Roman stillicidium Stillicidium, a dripping of water from the eaves , the term in architecture given by Vitruvius (v. 7) to the dripping eaves of the roof of the Etruscan temple, which prohibited building up to the very edge of an estate.
