The title of this thread is a bit of a misnomer. Some people here are referring the temperature at which it started raining, but give it a couple minutes and the temp is down to a not so impressive value. I don't think I've ever seen it rain above 80F.
We were at 102F one day when a severe storm rolled it. We had torrential rain ( well over an inch ), small hail, and winds of 40-50mph. It cooled it off to the high 60's.
What's air temperature of your warmest rain have you ever seen (and the place when the warm rain was occured) ?
New Orleans, Montgomery AL, Bastrop TX - all 80F while air saturated, pouring...felt like a warm shower, not even refreshing, and no pleasant rain smell. Albuquerque, Phoenix, El Paso can start raining 85-90F, but it drops into the 70's even 60's fast, except poor Phoenix. Above 70F here with rain is not refreshing, either...
Probably something like 82 F / 28 C. I know on August 20 this year it was 81 F / 27 C and raining, rained all over my Taco Bell as I was getting it into my car.
Rain and high winds at 28C/83F during Hurricane Ernesto in Mexico in 2012
