   They both fall. Rain drops refers to the shape of the rain as it falls.

   Rain drops are heavier than snow flakes, hence rain drops and snow falls(floats).

   LOL! Your logic is flawed so your question is invalid: there are spring flowers called snow drops and ELO sang "the rain is falling, falling, falling". Also meteorologists speak of rainfall figures    ;-)
