Where is the sun when a rain storm is happening?
The sun is still in the sky during a rainstorm. Rainstorms occur when the atmosphere conditions are right for precipitation, which does not necessarily block out the sun. You might not see the sun during a rainstorm if it is obscured by clouds, but it is still there.
Mid day sun depends on what?
The position of the sun at midday depends on the latitude and the time of year. In general, the sun will be directly overhead at midday at the equator twice a year during the equinoxes. At other latitudes, the angle of the sun at midday will vary throughout the year.
