It seems that there are around 14-17K Google results on each of
"[雨を降って](http://www.google.com/search?q=%22%E9%9B%A8%E3%82%92%E9%99%8D%E3%81%A3%E3%81%A6%22)"
and
"[雪を降って](http://www.google.com/search?q=%22%E9%9B%AA%E3%82%92%E9%99%8D%E3%81%A3%E3%81%A6%22)"
keywords. Is 降る yet another intransitive verb that are used with を? Does it
mean something like "rain on me" and "snow on me", or is it simply typo?

Some sample usages taken from Google results:

  * 今夜雨を降っている
  * 雨を降っても傘ささないのが仇となった
  * 沢山の雪を降っているの画像 

N.B. I don't think [either "through" or "leaving something behind"
interpretations](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/3243/making-
sense-of-transitive-usage-of-and-and) can work with "を降る".

question
particle-を transitivity
雨を降っています - grammatically correct sentence or just typo?
I would say it's a typo, but 17K Google results is hard to compete against. It
may be incorrect grammar that gets "accepted" as correct and becomes
incorporated into the language. Correct grammar would be:

  * `雨は・が降る` → "It's raining" or 
  * `雨を降らす` → "Make it rain" (if someone/thing could cause rain -- like God, a spirit, character in a story, etc.)
