It's in the language: words like "grey", "dreary" evoke sadness. The sky might be weeping (though that's a little over the top and overused). A lonely seagull might be crying plaintively. Wind might be bighting. Adjectives and adverbs associated with sadness would relate the stormy weather to the emotion you're trying to set for the scene.

Compare that to generous drops falling onto parched earth, washing away some negative whatever. Same rain, different mood. Here, different adjectives set the rain instead as a blessing and a relief.
