    A heavy rainfall will fix two things to rocks and soil. First the extra water just makes them denser. The additional weight may be just sufficient to let things to move. Second, the rainwater becomes into all of the openings of the soil or round the rocks. This can perform as an emollient to assist the particles or the rocks start touching down the slope in the development of mass wasting.
