Intense rainfall.
Contexto cultural
Heavy rain is celebrated with 'Rainy Day' holidays in schools. It is also the peak time for eating 'Dal Wada' and 'Bhajiya'. For farmers, 'bhāre varasād' is a blessing if it happens at the right time, but a disaster if it happens during harvest. In the city, heavy rain often leads to 'water logging' (પાણી ભરાવું), which is a major topic of local politics. Poets often use heavy rain as a metaphor for the tears of a lover or the overwhelming grace of God.
The Bhajiya Connection
If you mention 'bhāre varasād', immediately follow it up with a comment about 'bhajiya' to sound like a local.
Gender Matters
Remember 'Varasad' is masculine. Always use 'hatō' (was) or 'chē' (is), never 'hatī'.
