What would happen if stones fell to the ground like rain?

Imagine a world...this world...where rain was replaced with stones falling from the sky. Imagine the weatherman forcasting severe torrential rockfall, and how that would change our lives. Imagine what it would be like to be caught in a rockstorm, and how you might actually get pelted in the head by a shiny little pebble, and die. The world around us would change, but in what ways? Would people start carrying around metal umbrellas when it rained? And what if these rockfalls were unpredictable? What then? How would this life as we know it change?
