Freak rain in storm finds Dutch descendant (9)
I believe the answer is:
afrikaner
'dutch descendant' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'freak rain in storm' is the wordplay.
'in storm' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'freak'+'rain'='freakrain'
'freakrain' is an anagram of 'AFRIKANER'.
'finds' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for afrikaner that I've seen before include "trekker" , "Smuts, for example" .)
