  • It's been raining all day.

  • It's been raining forever.

forever 文字通り[永遠に](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/44646/)ふっているわけではありませんが、 [ずっと](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/37801/)降ってるのを強調したいときに使ってます。

  • It has been raining all week

  • It is really coming down.

  • I can't believe it has rained for the last 4 days.

You can specify from which date or day it has been raining. Then you can be more precise. For example if today is Friday, you could say "It has been raining since Tuesday and it's still raining!" or "It has been raining all week!" If it has been rain heavily you can say "it is raining cats and dogs!" This is an old English expression. It is believed that a while ago (100 odd years) cats and dogs would hide in the roof where it was warm. When it rained heavily they would fall out... Hence the saying "It has been raining cats and dogs all week!" When you express disbelief, like in this sentence "I can't believe...." it tells the listener that it is unusual that it has "rained for the last 4 days."
例:It has been raining all week. 「今週ずっと[雨が降っている](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/71967/)。」 例:It is really coming down. 「本当にずっと雨が降っている。」 例:I can't believe it has rained for the last 4 days. 「もう4日も雨が[続いている](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/71593/)なんて信じられない。」 いつから雨が降っているかを加えることで、もっと正確に表現できます。 例えば、"It has been raining since Tuesday and it's still raining!"「火曜日からずっと雨が降り続いている」か例文の1といいましょう。 強い雨が降り続いている場合、"it is raining cats and dogs!"「[どしゃぶり](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/391/)だ!」ということもできます。 これは古いイギリスの表現で、暑い時は犬や猫は隠れており、雨が降ると涼みに飛び出すことからきています。 "I can't believe..."「〜なんて信じられない」は、強調したい時に使えます。相手に平凡な出来事ではないことを伝えるのにいいですね。

  • It has been raining for days

  • It has been raining since yesterday morning

"It has been raining for days" This is an English phrase used to explain that it has been raining for a long time. "It has been raining since yesterday morning." This explains that it started raining yesterday morning and has continued through till now.
"It has been raining for days" (ずっと雨続きです) これは長い間、雨が続いていることを説明する英語の表現です。 "It has been raining since yesterday morning." (昨日の朝から雨が降り続いています) これは昨日の朝降り始めた雨が今もまだ降り続いている、と言う事を説明しています。

  • It's been raining since yesterday morning

Explanation: Use 'since' when you want to talk about the intervening period between a fixed point in the past and the present time. The present perfect or present perfect continuous are the most common forms used with 'since.' Example sentence: "I've been riding bikes since I was 10 years old."
解説:ある時点から過去または現在の次の時点までの間隔について表現したい場合は 'since' という言葉がつかえます。現在完了形または現在完了進行形で使われる最も一般的な言葉が、 'since.'です。 例文: "I've been riding bikes since I was 10 years old." (10歳の時からずっと自転車に乗っています。)

  • It's been raining all day

  • It's been raining throughout the day

When it rains from morning until late in the day, then you can say that it has been raining all/throughout the day. For example, you can say: -It's been raining all day. I am annoyed.

  • We've had continuous rain for two days.

  • We've had non-stop rain for two days.

The two sentences provided above have the adjectives continuous and non-stop. Although these words can be used in different ways in these two sentences they mean constant or without interruption. These two words are common in both formal and informal settings, so they would make a great addition to your vocabulary!
上記二つの文には、形容詞の「continuous」と「non-stop」が使われています。この二つは違う意味で使われることもありますが、上記の文ではどちらも「constant(絶えず続く)」「without interruption(継続的に)」という意味です。 この二つの語はフォーマルな場面でもインフォーマルな場面でも使えるので、覚えておくといいと思います。
