2 sentence that have to do with RAIN

I don't know if these are sayable?

1 An umbrella can’t do anything against this type of shower. I guess its ok

2 The rain has finally let up/weakened/subside/come to a drizzle. Let up OK / Weakened I don't know / Subside OK / Come to a drizzle I don't know

3 Rain doesn’t come down vertically. Depending on the way the wind is blowing it comes down at a slant. I don't know (can you say "at a slant"





Thanks

For

"the shower came to a drizzle"

If you can't say that how would you say it when It's pouring and it slowly subsides and starts to drizzle?

Is the bold part grammatically correct as well? "how would you say it when"
