Sunshine or a remarkable amount of rain (3)
I believe the answer is:
ray
'sunshine' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both types of natural phenomena as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'a remarkable amount of rain' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'a' is within the answer.
'amount' could be 'r' (R is an example) and 'r' is found within the answer.
A single letter 'y' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'or' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ray that I've seen before include "Lindwall" , "Broad flat fish; beam" , "Second note for the flat fish" , "bit of sunshine" , "Man, maybe" .)
