Sprinkles or showers (5)
I believe the answer is:
rains
This clue is a double definition.
'sprinkles' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'showers' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for rains that I've seen before include "Showers" , "Comes down from cloud" , "Falls in droplets" , "Tropical wet season" .)
