When something good or bad occurs, it usually occurs more than once and often within a short period of time.- It hadn't rained for over two months. Now it has started raining and it has been raining for a week nontstop. When it rains, it pours.
When it rains, it pours means that when something happens after a long time, it happens in large amounts.
- It looks like everyone in our department is sick again, and all at the same time. When it rains, it pours.
- Sometimes we have no customers for two or three hours, then suddenly we get 20 people all at once. When it rains, it pours.
