If the reading is going down very fast then its an indication of storm (within 5-6 hours) otherwise a slow downfall of reading suggests a low pressure area is passing in a nearby region, it may rains.

Barometer reading downfall causes depression or low pressure rain and sudden fall of reading causes strom.

First of all, barometer is a pressure measuring device and and when there is a storm which is formed due to low pressure in its center barometer should show sudden downfall of reading. Its got nothing to do with rainfall.

@Appi has explained very well.
Let me try Rain fall means flow of cloud from high press reason to low press reason.
Barometer is press measuring instrument, it gives atmospheric pressure reading, it mean it sense the low pressure at the time of rain fall.
