   Is there a difference between Hard Rain and heavy rain?

   • Edit: ...Ah! But he never heard it. It can be raining hard or heavily. The speaker makes no distinction between these two expressions, so I suppose there is no difference between a 'hard rain' (which the speaker has never heard, by the way) and a 'heavy rain'. 'Hard rain' is used in American English, though it is much less common than 'heavy rain'.
