We ran very fast in the rain which was getting heavier and heavier.

The above sentence is what I could think of to express "run" and "the rain becomes heavier and heavier" at the same time.
I am wondering if there is any proper adjective that can replace the relative clause.

We ran very fast in the _________ rain.
Is "intensifying" ok to use? How about "heavier-getting"? Or other words?
:roll:
 
Welcome to the forum.

Most people would understand 'in the worsening rain'.

Definitely not 'heavier-getting'.
