I have been studying japanese for some time now (my level floating somewhere
between beginner and intermediate), and the particle も has confused me.

I already know it works kind of like "too" or "also" Ex: 私も。「わたしも」== "Me too"

However, I've seen sentences where this meaning of "too" isn't present

Ex:  
雨はもう3日「も」降っています

(It's been raining for nearly three days now)

Can someone give me a general overview of what も can represent, and in what
contexts the meaning of it will change. Thank you.

How to use the particle も
も is often glossed as "also, too, even".

Looking again at your sample sentence:

> 雨【あめ】はもう[3日]{みっか} **[も]{●}** 降【ふ】っています

The も is used here as an intensifier, emphasizing that it's been **three
days**. It might help to think of this more like:

> It's already been raining for three days, **even**!
