A rain porch, also commonly known as a Carolina porch, is a type of indigenous porch form found in the Southeastern United States. Some architectural scholars believe it to have originated along the coast of the Carolinas, hence the colloquial name. The defining characteristic of the rain porch is a roof that extends far beyond the edge of the porch deck and is supported with freestanding supports that rise directly from ground level, rather than the floor of the porch deck. This protects the porch deck from exposure to the elements and also leaves it well shaded from the sun most of the time.

  • Un porche de lluvia, también conocido comúnmente como porche de Carolina, es un tipo de porche local que se encuentra en el sureste de los Estados Unidos. Algunos estudiosos de la arquitectura creen que se originó a lo largo de la costa de las Carolinas, de ahí el nombre coloquial.​ Su característica definitoria es un techo que se extiende mucho más allá del borde de la plataforma del porche y se sostiene con soportes independientes que se elevan directamente desde el nivel del suelo, en lugar del piso de la plataforma del porche. Esto protege la cubierta del porche de la exposición a los elementos y también la deja bien protegida del sol la mayor parte del tiempo.​ ​ Visto más comúnmente en casas populares históricas, el porche de lluvia también se adaptó a los pórticos monumentales de algunas mansiones del Renacimiento griego, como Rosemount y Kirkwood.​ El voladizo se volvió especialmente exagerado en algunas áreas con grandes cantidades de lluvia, como la costa este de Mobile Bay en Alabama. Aquí, el voladizo del techo osciló entre 3 y 6 pies (0,9 y 1,8 m) más allá de la plataforma del porche, creando de hecho un porche inferior y otro superior.​ (es)

This protects the porch deck from exposure to the elements and also leaves it well shaded from the sun most of the time. Most commonly seen on historic folk houses, the rain porch also came to be adapted to the monumental porticoes of some Greek Revival mansions, such as Rosemount and Kirkwood. The overhang became especially exaggerated in some areas with copious amounts of rainfall, such as the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay in Alabama. Here the roof overhang ranged between 3 and 6 feet (0.91 and 1.83 m) beyond the porch deck, in effect creating a lower and upper porch. (en)
