It's raining cats and dogs: o que significa?


Hi there, what's up! I hope everything is fine. Today it's raining very hard outside and it's quite good to stay home and watch a movie or something. This situation reminds me of an old idiom that I would like to share with you guys right now,  you can say "it's raining cats and dogs" if it's raing very hard. Here in Brazil we usually say "está caindo o maior toró". This idiom is very informal in both languages and sometimes it's not used in some situations.



Example:

The barbecue is going to be called off, it's raining cats and dogs. 
O churrasco vai ser cancelado, está o maior toró.

That's it, see you next time!
