Mariah Carey "Through The Rain": When you get caught in the rain With nowhere to run When you're distraught and in pain Without anyon.
Table of contents
I was even more enraptured by the soundtrack than the film.
"Along In The Sun And The Rain" ~ Woody Guthrie
And this particular track — a US No 1 on its release in although it recharted in , making it the only pop song to hold the top spot in different decades — soon wormed its way into my psyche, partly because it was so catchy, partly because it was so annoying. So let me summarise: Holmes sings of being bored with his girlfriend, and reading the lonely hearts ads in bed as she sleeps next to him we can leave aside the callousness of that until later. Our protagonist, deciding this description fits him perfectly, places a personal ad in response, suggesting they meet at a bar at noon.
Rather than breaking into a flurry of mutual recrimination, they laugh at the coincidence and talk about all the interests they never knew they shared — including an affair, presumably. This story first maddened and then intrigued me. I am a data journalist and found it hard to get past the sheer unlikeliness of this sequence of events.
I wondered, what were the chances? What if I applied my statistical skills to this question? A pedant might note that Holmes moved to a suburb of New York as a child, but the song title — Escape — had always evoked smalltown England, at least to me. I grew up a few dozen miles from Northwich.
I knew exactly why, living there, the lure of pina coladas and a fumble on a far-flung beach would be irresistible. Plus, the UK has much better archival data. First, I needed to know how many people might have seen the personal ad and how many might match it. My starting point was the UK Census — a nationwide effort, every 10 years, in which every citizen is legally obliged to give the government information about themselves: their age, location and other demographic data.
Escape was released in , only two years before the national census, according to which 17, people lived in the township of Northwich. After eliminating women and children — we can assume our mystery ad was seeking a man — the census had the figures I needed. Of those, slightly less than half would be men: while more male babies are born than female, the male population in was still affected by the second world war and women live longer than men.
My count of men targeted by the advert dropped to 4, There was more I could do to thin out this crowd. Figure 1C shows an example of the data that can be obtained using a tipping bucket rain gauge. These observations were made on 27 June The rainfall depth in mm quickly increased between and , meaning that it rained a lot during that period.

During a period of light rain, this device is not very precise. For example, between and , all you can tell is that 0. If there is a lot of wind, that can also affect the accuracy of the device. What is rainfall made of? Rain drops, obviously! Rain gauges are not sensitive enough to be able to take measurements of individual rain drops.
To start collecting data about drops and their size, you need a device called a disdrometer. Follow these steps: 1 Take a plate and put a few millimeters of flour all over it. You will observe something similar to what is shown in Figure 2A , and you will notice that drops do not all have the same size—some are very small and some are very large! Actually, the craters are bigger than the drops because the water slightly spreads after it hits the plate, but they still enable you to directly visualize the great variety of drop sizes, even during a very short time.
As you can imagine, meteorologists and researchers wanted a device more automatic and precise than the flour plate! They now mainly use optical disdrometers, which function as shown in Figure 2B. This kind of disdrometer is made of two parts: a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter generates a sheet of light a few mm in height.
The receiver is aligned with the transmitter, meaning that when it does not rain, the receiver receives all of the light. However, when a drop passes through the sheet of light, guess what happens? The amount of light received is smaller, because a portion gets blocked by the drop.

If the drop falls very quickly, the duration of the decrease in received light will be short. This is how the downward velocity speed of the falling drop is estimated. If the drop is large, the signal measured by the receiver will decrease more than with a smaller drop. This is how drop size is estimated. In this way, the size and velocity of each drop passing between the transmitter and the receiver are measured. Rain drops can be as large as 5—6 mm. Larger drops are split during their fall.
Indeed at this size they are not strong enough to resist the power of the wind they feel when falling rapidly. Figure 2C shows the number of drops of each size that fell during a storm that occurred on 27 June in the Paris area. Small drops are much more numerous than large ones. But do not forget that a 1-mm drop has a volume times smaller than a 5-mm drop!
This means that, although they are not numerous, large drops account for a lot of the rainfall depth. Let us now consider successive time steps of 30 s. Then, by adding the volume of all the drops that passed through the disdrometer during a s time step, you can estimate the amount of rain depth that fell during each s time step.
