It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that when it rained from the sky, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would uncover his back from his garment until the rain touched him (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked: Why do you do this? He said: "Because it (the rain) has only just come (down) from its Lord, the Mighty and Majestic."
This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

Details of the narration: Abu Kamil Fudayl bin Husayn al-Jahdari narrated it from Ja'far al-Duba'i, with this chain, in these words: "hasara 'an mankibayhi" (he (peace and blessings be upon him) uncovered his shoulders).

أخرجه من طريقه ابن عدي في "الكامل" 2/ 149، والذهبي في "كتاب العرش" (96)، وفي "العلو" (95). وعليه يحمل قوله: "عن ظهره" في رواية الحاكم على كشف المنكبين الشريفين.
General principle: Imam al-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) says that the phrase "hadithu 'ahdin bi-rabbihi" (fresh from its Lord) means that it has only just been created. Its sense is that rain is a mercy of Allah that has only just been freshly created, and for this reason blessing is sought from it.
قال النووي: ومعنى "حديث عهد بربه" أي: بتكوين ربه إياه، ومعناه: أن المطر رحمة وهي قريبة العهد بخلق الله تعالى لها فيتبَرَّك بها.
