I believe the answer is:

pourboire

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'tip' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'with rain ahead one must wear anorak' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'rain' becomes 'pour' (pouring is a kind of raining).
'ahead one must wear anorak' becomes 'boire' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'pour'+'boire' is 'POURBOIRE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pourboire that I've seen before include "Tip" , "Gratuity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
