Some places get constant rain because they are near big, warm oceans that keep the air wet and moving. Imagine you're standing next to a huge, never-ending water fountain, it's always spraying water into the sky, which then falls back down as rain. That’s kind of what happens in places like Indonesia or parts of Brazil.
Examples
- A child playing outside in Indonesia gets soaked every day because rain never stops.
- A farmer in Brazil plants crops that only grow in wet conditions all year long.
- A family living near a warm ocean sees clouds forming right above their house every morning.
