Raindrops vary in size from about 0.02 in. (0.5 mm) to as much as 0.33 in. (8 mm) in thunderstorms.Raindrops come in many different sizes and can get to as big as a quarter inch. They cannot get bigger than that and the reason is that the wind resistance begins breaking them up into smaller raindrops.Raindrops don't get much larger than a quarter inch.
