A Storm is Brewing

Following on from the smoke, I have attempted to use what I learnt to create rain, this time using a different particle system (PFlow) and this YouTube tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTSJyqHrWIo. I followed the tutorial, changing a few things as I went along. Using this tutorial I learnt a new way to create a particle system without using the modify tab, instead I pressed the number 6 on the keyboard and it came up with the particle view

I then used the second part of the tutorial to create ripples where the drops hit the water. This was successful but once done, I found that the particle system didn't fit in well with the scene.
