Regn är nederbörd som endast består av flytande vatten. Regndropparnas diameter varierar normalt mellan 0,5 och 5,0 mm, men kan i ovanliga fall bli ända upp till 10 mm innan de sönderfaller i mindre droppar. Regn är den nederbördsform som har störst betydelse som källa för färskt vatten i stora delar på jorden och som sådan en förutsättning för olika typer av ekosystem. Regn är globalt sett den viktigaste källan för vattenkraft och konstbevattning.
