  An umbrella!
  
  I prefer hoods though. They tend to blow away less.

  I ‘m sure I remembed singing “the Sun goes up and the rain comes down” as part of an action song as a child. Sure seems to work that way usually in the UK. 😉
  
  Answer to the question as a riddle is an umbrella…

  When rain falls, that means more water on the surface. At some point, some more water evaporates and that turns into clouds which can eventually condense, which then falls as rain.
  
  So more rain goes up…the serious answer 😐

  The water content of your clothes!
  
  Have you ever wondered whether you get wetter when you run or walk through the rain? It’s a really difficult scientific problem, and as far as I know, people don’t really know!
