I'm not completely sure but I think it is either because raindrops are water surrounding dust particles and the dust particles vary in size. Or it is because raindrops merge together as they fall causing them to expand.

Raindrops vary in size due to differences in temperature, pressure, and humidity in the atmosphere. Factors such as the collision and coalescence of smaller droplets, as well as the presence of ice crystals in clouds, can also influence the size of raindrops. Ultimately, variations in atmospheric conditions lead to a range of raindrop sizes falling to the ground.
