What is the difference between rainfall and waterfall? What are the similarities of rains and rains?
His cloak was wet due to heavy rainfall There
were some stones to destroy it, causing it to
fall. His cloak was wet due to the heavy rain.
Which out of the following sounds good? Is the use of article ‘the’ required?
How was your day?
The article “the” is not required in this context. You could just as easily have “due to heavy _” in the last 3 sentences.
The third sentence is wrong because you have missed the word “to”. Due to the heavy rain.
Which sound is more appropriate, it doesn’t matter. In this context, “rainfall”, “rain”, and “rain” are interchangeable meanings. The word rain refers to a shower or rainfall. This is an unorthodox definition.

agree with @AricFowler the definite article ” ” is optional here, and my cloak from all angles).
All three words ‘rain’ are actually synonyms. In British English, the rains refers to the time when there is heavy rainfall.
To be more precise, rain is water that can be seen when it is in the sky. Why is rain the absolute rain of the sky?
Rainfall is used when we want to communicate how much rainfall falls per day in a specific region or in more general way, the average amount of rain that falls per day in a specific period to communicate overall rain status.
