We show that the hourly rainfall rate distribution can be described by a
simple power law to a good approximation. We show that the exponent of the
distribution in tropics is universal and is equal to $1.13\pm 0.11$. At higher
latitudes the exponent increases and is found to lie in the range 1.3-1.6.
