As a rain drop falls it is subjected to the forces of the air it is falling through, the most important being drag. The drag of the air on the surface of a drop of water is trying to hold it back as it falls. As the air circles around the back of the water drop, the slight vacuum that is formed by the falling pulls the upper part of the drop up into a cone shape. Eventually, these actions result in the very streamlined shape that a raindrop has before it hits the ground.

How long does it take for a droplet of rain to reach the Earth?
It depends on the size of the raindrop and the height at which it forms. The larger the raindrop, the faster it will fall. The rain falling to earth begins in clouds as fine droplets, which begin falling very slowly and then collect to form larger drops that fall faster. During the fall, the drops will break up and reform, so the falling speed can vary from 5-20 miles per hour. Rain could take anything from a few minutes to 20+ minutes depending on drop size, height and wind.
