PC stands for Police Constable. This is a rank within the police force, and PC is the abbreviation of this title. For example, a police constable called John Smith could be referred to as PC Smith. PC Rain is a joke, referring to the fact that rainy weather suppresses crime. The job of police officers is to suppress crime, but sometimes the weather does this job for them.
