Quote from the wiki:
"Rain also cleans any tile it lands on, removing blood, vomit and other bodily fluids on contact."
Does it mean that the haunted rain from above will eat up all the blood on the ground? Maybe it's red flesh eating bacteria rain? Or red acid rain?
BTW, blood rain sounds like a natural habitat for vampires :D

Build a grid of floor grates above the entire city. Draft a squadron of masons and bomb the crap out of the city with falling constructed walls.

Well, rat men are subterranean and thus don't experience the rain.  The horror of having your own blood pour down from the sky is lost on you when you when a human settler steps outside and says "What's with all this rat man blood?  This is weird.  Anyways, let's see what's at market!"

OH GOD!  If this is possible though, if the blood of a species can rain...  What... what if it can rain booze? ._.

This might require modding in a race with booze for blood.

...what?  Why?  Don't your dwarves already have booze for blood?  This is normal, right?

It's clumps of the Red Weed dropping to Earth!

It would be nice to have a sort of "on <material X> rain contact with <material Y> <object>" reaction so we could have blood-rain reanimate corpses that it hits, or something along those lines.
